William Shatner has three things in his life – Star Trek, that video of three of him singing Rocket Man and wild paranoid fury.
And since the first two have already made William Shatner incredibly rich, it’s time for him to turn his attention onto the third – which explains why tonight sees the American premiere of Shatner’s Raw Nerve, a show where William Shatner will interview celebrities by utilising the unique crackpot, paranoid, ego-fuelled, screeching, insecure ranting that appears to have alienated him from everyone he’s ever met.
