    A Senior Trekker writes.......................
    The Androrian Incident is well worth re-watching.

    It certainly lifted my spirits after the disappointment of the previous two episodes to see such a taut political thriller set in a convincing alien environment. The guest performances were pitch perfect. Mind you, three of the actors were Star Trek regulars: Jeffrey Combs, Bruce French and Steven Dennis were all so familiar with the milieu from their multiple appearances in other series that they probably knew a lot more about what they were doing than the novice regulars of the NX-01.

    Show runners and writers Berman and Braga managed to lift themselves from their creative exhaustion to produce an excellent story with a lively script and Roxanne Dawson of Star Trek Voyager was the perfect director.

    I know that most people really appreciate this episode but I'm struggling to decide whether it is so highly thought of just because it managed to rise to the standard of what we'd come to expect from Star Trek, or because it actually WAS outstanding.

    I tend towards the latter view but see no reason to alter my usual median score.
