You know you've seen WED too many times when...


You start a phone call by saying, "Broadsword calling Danny Boy!"
Your wife notices you have a hole in your sweater and you reply, "What the Hell...a hole is a hole is hole, as they say!"
During a conversation, you tell someone that you "thought ze Cathedral was on ze uzzer side of ze Square!"
You meet a beautiful blonde showing a lot of cleavage, look down at her boobs and comment, "What a disguise!"
Your wife catches you in bed with another woman and demands to know what's going on, and you reply, "It's very simple...the young lady and myself have just uncovered a plot to assassinate the Fuhrer!"
Your only solution to even the smallest problem is to "Whistle up a Pathfinder Squadron with ten-ton bombs!"
You once dated a girl called Fred

Any more?

HILARIOUS! Glad you started off with "Broadsword calling Danny boy." Whenever I think of Burton, THAT'S the line that comes to mind.

reply

Me too! Especially with that emphasis he has when he pronounces all of his "o's".

you start "comunicating" with your eyes with the person seating on the back while you are driving

I'm watching it now for the oh about 38th time. it's still better than most of what's on tv now. I have watching this and hogans heroes too many times, as silly as hogans heroes is, it sort of reminds me of this movie, or is it the other way around? hogan is richard burton or richard burton is hogan

Heidi is one of our TOP agents, and what a disguise! I can see hogan saying this

Whenever you say "Hello" to someone, you automatically pull out a silenced gun from an attache case and shoot them.

You break into your friend's place late at night because he has a ham radio and you try to contact Major Wilhelm Wilner at Colonel Kesselring's HQ in Italy.

You can't go into a pub without whistling a song into a sexy blonde barmaid's ear.

If anyone tells you off you inform them that you're Himmler's brother.

Everytime you look under a vehicle, you see a Scotsman dressed as a German soldier with his neck broken.

Everytime you go into your woodshed, you discover a gorgeous blonde pointing a gun at you.

...you can't help what you think!

...you prefer to ride on, as opposed to in, cable cars.

...you make a trip to Austria with the express purpose of seeing the castle.

You start drinking whiskey highballs and chain smoke French cigarettes.

Whenever taking gondola rides you insist on riding on top.

Whenever your buddy introduces you to a new girlfriend the first thing you say is, "You seem to have a lot of women stashed around this country Major."

You named your dog Cartwright Jones.

You completely paralyzed as to how to act unless you imagine Richard Burton is there to guide you ever single step of the way. WWRBD?
