"With tuppence for paper and strings. You can have your own set of wings. With your feet on the ground. You're a bird in a flight. With your fist holding tight. To the string of your kite."
This definitely sounds like "Mary Poppins" to me (and this time I am being serious)

This is surely a line from Back To The Future, one of my son's favourite films??
Yeah - now that you mention it Bevee, my son has the boxed set of DVDs (I, II and III)! - that line is from Marty's Dad as a youngster, after Marty comes to his room dressed in his silver suit and tells him he is Darth Vader, from the planet Vulcan.

"Good evening, London. Allow me first to apologize for this interruption. I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of every day routine- the security of the familiar, the tranquility of repetition. I enjoy them as much as any bloke. But in the spirit of commemoration, whereby those important events of the past, usually associated with someone's death or the end of some awful bloody struggle, a celebration of a nice holiday, I thought we could mark this November the 5th, a day that is sadly no longer remembered..."

Well, something to do with Guy Fawkes night I guess - I would need another hint SVP
