It's Star Trek: TOS Week here at Retro Squad and I came across this gallery of photos from a photographer named Steve Schofield. His site says that he is "concerned with exploring the fascination that the British public has with American popular culture and the sub-cultural world of fandom."
The photos on his site show science fiction (and other pop culture genres) fans in natural settings, mostly sitting or standing around the house. The contrast is rather interesting. The guy on the right looks like he just beamed down to a present-day home in one of Star Trek's many time travel episodes.
Besides the Enterprise crew (sorry, no Kirk or Spock), you can also see Klingons lounging around the house, Darth Vader and son (?), a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, some cowboys, Chewbacca standing next to a sink, and even Elvis enjoying a nice cup of coffee in his kitchen, which is one of my favorites.

I'm excited about ST: TOS week on TVSquad, but can you puhlease ask Wil Wheaton to do some more TNG reviewcaps? I'm really interested in his behind the scenes stuff for Skin of Evil!
