And those memorable words spoken when they
landed back in England after fighting Saladin
'In four hours we will be in Nottingham'
Must have caught the East Coast Express !!! :lol:

Well i've been giving this thread a lot of serious thought,as you do when Northern Lassie adds a topic!
Anyway what about Sam Jaffe who played Gunga Din in the film of the same name?
A brilliant performance.
So I'll meet 'im later on
At the place where 'e is gone --
Where it's always double drill and no canteen;
'E'll be squattin' on the coals
Givin' drink to poor damned souls,
An' I'll get a swig in hell from Gunga Din!
Yes, Din! Din! Din!
You Lazarushian-leather Gunga Din!
Though I've belted you and flayed you,
By the livin' Gawd that made you,
You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din!

Or Tuesday Weld in Once upon a time in America? Hmmm Tuesday Weld!!
