20 Things You Didn't Know About Star Trek V: The Final Frontier
10. A Family Affair
Star Trek V, for William Shatner at least, was very much a family affair. His youngest daughter, Melanie, appears as the yeoman who hands him his jacket near the beginning of the film. She also then returns to help him with a failed attempt at a captain's log. This, in a way, was a follow-on from an Oldsmobile Commercial in which she had appeared in 1988, one which ended with her father beaming into the car with her.
She was the third of his daughters to appear in the franchise, with his elder children, Lisabeth and Leslie, appearing in the Original Series episode Miri.
Lisabeth would go on to write a book about her father's experiences while directing this film.
