"Number One" is First Rate to the End!

The wife of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, Majel Barrett Roddenberry, 76, has left £2.65 million in her will to her cats and dogs. Legal papers do not specify how many pets she owned at the time of her death.

Mrs. Roddenberry, whose husband died in 1991, also left £662,000 to her housekeeper, who is allowed stay at the family mansion to take care of the animals.

Mrs. Roddenberry, an actress who appeared in many Star Trek episodes including the role of second-in-command "Number One" under Captain Pike, was sometimes referred to as the 'First Lady of Star Trek'.
