Webley Mark VI .455 revolvers (as stated above, not adopted until 1915) often serve as a stereotypical British revolver in film and television; their appearance in the film Zulu, for example, is incorrect. Lt. Chard, the officer in command at Rorke's Drift, carried a Webley .450 RIC solid frame revolver.

Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or impact:
“If we can learn ... to look at the ways in which various groups appropriate and use the mass-produced art of our culture ... we may well begin to understand that although the ideological power of contemporary cultural forms is enormous, indeed sometimes even frightening, that power is not yet all-pervasive, totally vigilant, or complete.”
—Janice A. Radway (b. 1949)
“The question confronting the Church today is not any longer whether the man in the street can grasp a religious message, but how to employ the communications media so as to let him have the full impact of the Gospel message.”
—Pope John Paul II (b. 1920)
