I was quite certain it would be Q

Not going to say whether I was right or wrong though!

The actor who plays Spock has uncanny intonation and phrasing. He re-ignited my high school crush

A little embarrassing now that I'm pushing 60, but still it made for a fun afternoon of nostalgia....

But the voice to which I refer is the young man who has taken on the role of Spock. His intonation, inflection, phrasing...he sounds so much like Nimoy in the role, it was uncanny. He truly became Spock as a young man. And went a long way toward demonstrating Spock's inner, bi-species conflict in its youthful stage.
