Help. What film/tv show is this line from? (vague)

23 replies

Shakey15000 · 01/04/2016 20:51

I'm one of those annoying sods who either bursts into song or quotes lines from films at random moments picking up on what someone has just said (I know, it's like a compulsion, definitely a habit)

Anyhow, someone mentioned the name "Katie" and into my head popped the following and I can't for the life of me remember where it's from.

It's a man saying (or rather taking the piss) out of someone with a stutter (sorry for non PCNess) called Kate/Katie with a " K..K...K...Katie"

Any ideas? Told you it was vague. However the "K" is pronounced "Kuh" and it's 100% in an Australian accent.

I think it's an old film/tv, as in 1980/1990's.

Could it be to do with this? Maybe try youtube

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 01/04/2016 20:54

There's a song called that (K-K-K Katie) - not Australian though...

MrsLettuce · 01/04/2016 20:55

Oh, sorry, thought it was a song you'd got - misread the OP!

Is it The Way We Were?

ijustwannadance · 01/04/2016 20:58

The way we were, with Barbara Streisand?

Shakey15000 · 01/04/2016 21:03

I don't think it's The Way We Were. You know that Australian actor who did a few things in that era (not Paul Hogan), Brian somebody perhaps? I'm not sure if I'm picturing him saying it? Fair hair. Looked as if he'd be a bit of a twat IRL.

Hmm, not sure on the Bryan angle now. Nothing's sticking out from his Wiki list Sad

Definitely Australian accent though Confused I think it was a well know "thing" as well.

Hi everyone,

Just moving this thread into films. OP please do shout if this is a problem for you. Flowers

ElaeudanlaTeiteia · 22/05/2016 19:36

Sure it's Katie, and Australian? Sounds a bit like K-k-k-Ken in - ?

MrsJackRackam · 17/06/2016 21:05

It was Cocktail I think

Dudess · 24/07/2016 18:30

The Dressmaker had something similar, I think....set in Australia, but only out a few years ago/last year.

2protecttheinnocent · 24/07/2016 18:32

The way we were. Katie and Hubble, total classic also mentioned in sex in the city

Hassled · 24/07/2016 18:33

Here. It's an old song - WW1, apparently.

Hassled · 24/07/2016 18:34

Sorry - should have RTFT. Link already posted.

MsWorthington · 24/07/2016 18:36

This?

Davros · 24/07/2016 21:00

K-K-Katie, beautiful Katie
You're the only g-g-girl that I adore
And when the m-m-moonshines over the c-c-cow shed
I'll be waiting at the k-k-kitchen door

Used to sing it as kids Grin

ninenicknames · 24/07/2016 21:04

Cocktail
