No, you are indeed correct, I usually notice films a few years after they come out when they show up on the basic "free" TV channels :lol:

Oh well, consider this one a 'bonus question'. I doubt people outside the UK will know what this is from and I suspect a fair few inside the UK wont either :doh: :lol:

Thats a 70s TV program and I suspect the sort of character in that who might deliver that line, would have delivered it in a far less eloquent manner in which this line is actually delivered in the film its from :wink:

Dan,

I think Leif's goes back a bit further - Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid?

Is there a protocol to answering a question like this? There might be, I couldn't possibly say!
