By my calculations, 'old sport' was spoken 45 times in the book and 47 in the film!Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14589126539759749197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7454358483559743681.post-28108391175131134572013-06-02T22:35:24.381+10:002013-06-02T22:35:24.381+10:00Great post, Danielle!
