As a small cartoon “Scotty” fae Star Trek has beamed doon into the original artwork “Four Seasons in one day”.
Strange New Worlds has gone where no Star Trek has gone before — the actual Scotland — to recruit 29-year-old Martin Quinn as “Scotty”. 29-year-old Martin Quinn, born in Paisley and trained at London’s Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Even a American listener can immediately detect the difference between the typical “Hollywood” Scots accent and the real deal. Martin is Standing near the front-centre of the artwork.
