New book Trek Classic is written by SFX contributor Ed Gross and covers the original 1960s series. In this except, he covers what went on behind the scenes in the last days of the series back in 1969

All hail classic Trek! We're loving the new JJ Abram's Star Trek movie, which has beamed Kirk and Spock back into the centre of the sci-fi stage. It's given us an itch to rewatch the original series again. Long-time SFX contributor Ed Gross has written a shuttle-load of articles about the original 1966-1969 series over the last few decades, and he's now collecting them together in a book called Trek Classic: The Untold Making Of The Original Series. Catchy, no?

Ed's exclusively given us a chapter from his book for you to read here on the site - it's one of the later sections dealing with the third and final season of the show, and the decisions that brought it to its close.
