yep, D Mac will turn 90 in September… the average life expectancy of the American male is roughly 78 years (yeah, I know he’s from the U.K., but he’s lived here forever), so he’s outlived his “expiration date” by almost a dozen years; I’d say he looks pretty dang good! when you get to be almost 90, I suggest you don’t look in a mirror - it’s scary! 😂
seriously, brgjoe? you think Shatner has aged “gracefully”? I know he’s 92, but from this female’s POV he hardly has a “youthful glow”…
and comparing McCollum and Shatner, I’d say D Mac is wayyyy sharper in the cognitive department than Shatner is! listening to Shatner talk recently, he sounds a little bit out there 🥴…(I know he went into space in 2021, so pardon the pun 😊)
I ❤️ D Mac! Shatner - not so much…

We'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
I haven't seen many 90+ year olds as spry looking or as quick witted as William Shatner. Seen him in many an interview and sounds very good to me considering his age. And just by looking at him, I thought maybe he would be 70 or 80 at the *most*. Although his toupee is probably much younger than that. Heh.
I have not seen DM in any recent interviews. He looks to me about his age. But haven't heard him talk outside of his few appearances on the show lately. Just hope he's doing well. Been a favorite of mine for a lot of years as well.

Yeah, David McCallum is definitely looking older these days. But I was able to understand him still just fine. Though I think he's turning 90 this year, isn't he? We all can't age as gracefully as William Shatner. Still good to see him though.
One more annoyance I did forget to mention. And if I'm wrong about this, let me know. But it seemed like during the episode the writers were confusing iris (almost typed "irish!") scans wish retinal scans. In the episode didn't they show a blow up of the senator's eye, featuring the iris? I'd have to watch it again but it seemed like they were saying, "Oh yeah, I can totally understand how they could get the senator's eye scan now!" You'd think though that they would use retinal scans. And that would be a heck of a lot harder to duplicate just blowing up a photo of someone's eyeball.
Otherwise I'd think they would ban photographing people who have eyeball scans on record. "Sorry folks, I can't be included in this family photo. I have a top secret security clearance and someone might use my iris scan to get into a classified document library!"
Brgjoe, If it annoyed you than that's okay. its what you got out of it.
