William Shatner became one of the all-time nightmare guests on an American TV show after making a series of rude hand gestures at the host.

Red-faced and visibly sweating the 78-year-old Star Trek actor appeared out of sorts on the long-running Tonight Show.

He appeared on the programme, hosted by Conan O'Brien, to promote his biography and up-coming TV series.

But his behaviour got so bad at one point new host Conan O'Brien walked off stage before getting on his table and shouting: 'What is wrong with you.'

Network bosses blurred out the Captain Kirk actor's gestures in the broadcast.

The actor mimed masturbation and flicked the finger at host Conan during the interview.

Shatner began the appearance telling a story about a time he camped at the beach with a friend and needed to go to the toilet in the morning...

:( Oh dear. This genuinely saddens me. I am a <geek> Shatner fan.

Take a large, almost round, rotating sphere about 8000 miles in diameter, surround it with a murky, viscous atmosphere of gases mixed with water vapor, tilt its axis so it wobbles back and forth with respect to a source of heat and light, freeze it at both ends and roast it in the middle, cover most of its surface with liquid that constantly feeds vapor into the atmosphere as the sphere tosses billions of gallons up and down to the rhythmic pulling of a captive satellite and the sun. Then try to predict the conditions of that atmosphere over a small area within a 5 mile radius for a period of one to five days in advance!

I am wondering if there is some genuine problem, like alzheimers?

Yeh, that thought crossed my mind. He is starting to act ( worse than) his character in Boston Legal.....

dementia does remove inhibition and reduce us to fascination with bodily function. this would explain the masterbation and toilet humour. if he starts pulling his pants down in public, we'll know for sure.

seriously, inappropriate toilet humour and lack of inhibition are classic symptoms of dementia and schizophrenia.

That is one great show...

It's possible but I guess 'his people' are not going to let on, even if it is.

Or - is it possible he acting the fool to drum up support for his new show?

You know, to get people talking about it, like that kate/john show?

There's a question though, these 'stars' are presumably in a 'green room' prior to their appearance. Now, presumably live tv shows have policies in place and experienced staff to monitor guests demeanor. That begs the question, do they deliberately ignore some signs of behaviour because it's going to create 'good telly' or are they just poor decisions?

Some of the comments suggest that he was just being humorous. I don't know I'll have to watch it before I can comment.

I loves me some Shatner. :luv:

we watched it and yes he was just being funny and Conan wasn't upset by his actions at all :no: he was just playing along

you can watch the interview here... Shatner's interview is at about 31 minutes
