10 Times Star Trek Reused Sets And Hoped You Wouldn't Notice

10. Ten Forward/The President's Office

The cheek. The gall. The gumption. The audacity to think the audience wouldn't notice - they even left the diagonal paneling on the walls. But, to be fair, we bloody love it here at TrekCulture towers.

Ten Forward was introduced in The Next Generation's second season, serving as the base for Guinan. This was Roddenberry's answer to an old west saloon (although with far less piano playing and far more synthahol), which would also serve as a function room when the situation called for it.

It was a large standing set, so it made sense to try and get as much use out of it as possible. Therefore, when The Undiscovered Country (oh, you'll see that film on this list again) went into production, Ten Forward was quickly adopted by the theatrical production.

The space setting was swapped out for Paris, and the bright sunshine flowed down onto the President's table. In the scenes featuring the discussion of Kirk and McCoy's arrest, this was the setting of the large office in which Starfleet and Federation representatives gather to watch the show trial. It is also where we catch an early glimpse of René Auberjonois, depending on which version of the film you're watching.
