| - | Several Danish films quote ''The Champagne Galop'' to introduce a Tivoli-sequence, for instance ''[[Reptilicus]]'' (1961). It is also associated with unbridled carnality as can be seen from its use in several Danish sex films such as Ole Ege's ''[[Bordellet]]'' (aka: ''The Best Bit of Crumpet in Denmark'') (1972) and in the Swedish [[3-D film|3-D]] sex comedy ''[[Champagnegalopp]]'' (aka: ''What the Swedish Butler Saw'') (1975), starring [[Ole Søltoft]] and [[Diana Dors]]. | ||
