Fine actor that will be missed!

I liked the scene in 'save the whales' where he picked up the mouse and said "Computer..."

He pulled off a Scot accent like no other and made me laugh on several occasions, most notably when he got drunk with an alien to the point of passing out in the originl series.

Scotty was my favorite character in the Star Trek universe.

How could anybody forget this line: "I know this ship like the back of my hand.", and he walks right into a bulkhead.

Rest in Peace, Scotty.

Remembers that wildrose lol

Was more of a Spock fan myself and McCoy allways gave me the creeps somehow. Scotty was like 'Ye lot haven't got a clue' (including the Captain). Played the part of an Exasperated Scotsman spot on..

Just texted my mate on it who is totally nuts on Star Trek (Even has a Picard Uniform - he's weird lol)

"It's Green" Scotty and a fond farewell.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to hide the bodies of people who pissed me off.

Aye, sad news indeed.

Still, look on the bright side, as a mate pointed out to me, even though his final years were blighted by alzheimers he was still rocking and rolling up to his 80th birthday, I hope I'm still knocking out kids like he was when I'm 80.

As an aside, the phrase "Beam me up, Scotty" is never actually said - it's actually "Beam me up, Mister Scott".

Freedom of speech is the basic freedom of humanity. When you've lost that, you've lost everything.

RIP, Scotty

You just knew that if his charactor could, Scotty would've beaned Captain Kirk a couple times in each episode

More than likely, he'd have have beamed him out when he was practicing liplocks with da alien bitches.
