Just an extension of what we started on the BoB thread... test your memories of movie quotes which don't seem to fade with the day!

Mine to start: "That's fine Jim! I'll dance at your wedding!"

Although a good educated guess... one of the good lines on Back of Beyond is when Henry Butler, Tom's mate and travelling companion asks whether he plans to drive the Badger around or across the dunes - Tom's classic reply: "Over the top!"

Wasn't it the Boer War veteran Grandpa in the movie Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang? He was always the image in my mind of the unflappable Victorian soldier. Very-good, Sah!

I'll give you another hint, this was said to a soldier free wheeling on a bicycle as he came by the Guard House;

"STOP!, that man, Sergeant put his name in the Book, IDLE CYCLING".
