Interview with Dominic Keating

We often hear stories about how the actors on TNG have remained close over the years and even went to each others weddings in some cases. Does that type of bond exist between you and your former cast mates?

Hallo!
Thanks for giving us this opportunity to ask some questions! Here are mine...

Dominic,

is there a chance of seeing you play theatre in the near future? In London, maybe?

I'm half way through listening to the Iliad - such a joy, and I can hardly imagine how much work that was, though you make it sound fun - so I have a question on that one: Did playing sci-fi and fantasy roles help in preparing for the Iliad? Or how did you approach that task? (BTW, it's great fun to listen to you saying "Hector" like Lt. Reed would say "Commander Tucker", you know like "Hecta" & "Commanda Tucka")

Will you come to FedCon in Bonn 2017?

Thanks again!
Cheerio!

This thread will be being closed today at 4.00 GMT to allow me time to prepare - get your questions in whilst you can!

...one more question :-)

Dominic,

Why do you have so little screentime in the Enterprise bloopers? If I remember correctly, there's just one scene where you lose your balance and land on the ground, managing not to break the prop gun in the fall (season 3, hopefully not hurting yourself too much) plus the adorable scene with Riker ("Did you find yourself attracted to him?" - "That's a rude personal question!" Season 4 - btw, did you make up that answer spontanously or did you plan it?).
Yesterday I watched "Sherlock Holmes", and again: nothing to see of you in the outtakes.
So I wonder... Don't you ever make funny little mistakes like other actors do, forgetting a line, mixing up words etc? (I wouldn't be the least surprised if you didn't... ;-)) Or do you feel uncomfortable with having them on blooper reels?

Thanks again & cheerio!

Has there ever been a situation either on Enterprise or another production were you refused to play a scene.

What do you think about JJ-Trek and the upcoming Star Trek Discovery playing around 100 years after Enterprise and is there something you would like Malcolm Reed to be remembered for in the history books.

Hi, dear UFP-Team,

first of all: thank you very, very much for giving us the chance to ask Dominic Keating questions via you.

I have also two questions I would like you to ask Dominic Keating.

First of all I’m interested in his actor education. I know that he has a degree in history but I did not find more information about his actor education. Perhaps he can tell us something about it and the time there. He is such a talented and beloved actor – so I think his fans (and of course I) are very interested in this topic.

Dominic Keating announced on his Instagram account two weeks ago that he has the chance for a couple of good shows. Could he already tell us something about his next plans. I’m so curious.

Thanks again to you and to Dominic Keating! Can't wait to hear your interview!

Hi Everyone, Interview hopefully should take place this evening and the questions are printed, it may take me a day or two to process his answers and transcript them but I'll be as quick as I can!

Wish me luck!

Interview went great - had 40 minutes on the phone to him and he is a class guy! I've got a recording of the entire 20 minutes that I'm going to replay over in a few minutes to test the quality - he even said he might be able to hook us up with Connor Trineer as well! Fingers crossed!
