Here's a wee Star Trek fact to get you started: Linlithgow in West Lothian is the reputed future birthplace of Montgomery 'Scotty' Scott, who was played in the original series and seven movies by the late Canadian actor James Doohan and is portrayed in the rebooted films by Simon Pegg. In this, the 50th anniversary year of the series, you can visit a special exhibition at Annet House Museum in Linlithgow.
