Icon Wheelchairs is famous - acting debut on TV show "Nikita"

We were approached a few months ago by the Canadian television show "Nikita", and asked if we could provide them with a wheelchair for a guest star playing a character with SCI.

Here's a screen shot of the preview video for the show - the episode airs on Friday the 7th of October at 8pm EST.

Name:  nikitachair.jpg
Views: 448
Size:  235.3 KB

The preview trailer can be seen at:

http://watch.ctv.ca/clip535346#clip535346

The episode can be viewed online the day after it airs on ctv.ca - click on the "video" tab, then click on "Nikita".

I've seen the episode, and it's no spoiler to say that the chair really carries the show (or at least the actor).

Nope. Got a free lap dance.

@SCI_OTR - Uh, not trying to start rumors or anything, but I heard it was the other way around - someone told me that it was you that was sitting in its lap.

Also, in Nikita, there's a scene where the chairs backside is prominently featured, for all'a y'all who didn't make it to Vegas.

Nikita is also available here, but I didn't find the clip with the Icon.

the CW says "new" shows, but they are usually a couple months behind release dates from Canada. My daughter watches Heartland all the time and it's always behind the Canadian releases she watches online.
