Editing It's a Long Way to Tipperary (section)

==Later performances==

The song was featured as one of the songs in the 1951 film ''[[On Moonlight Bay (film)|On Moonlight Bay]]'', the 1960s [[stage musical]] and film ''[[Oh! What a Lovely War]]'', and the 1970 musical ''[[Darling Lili]]'', sung by [[Julie Andrews]]. It was also sung by the [[Prisoner of war|prisoners of war]] in [[Jean Renoir]]'s film ''[[La Grande Illusion]]'' (1937) and as background music in ''[[The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming]]'' (1966). It is also the second part (the other two being "[[Hanging on the Old Barbed Wire]]" and "[[Mademoiselle from Armentières]]") of the regimental march of [[Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry]]. ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]'' used it twice, sung by [[Crow T. Robot]] in ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie]]'' (1996), then sung again for the final television episode. It is also sung by British soldiers in the film ''[[The Travelling Players]]'' (1975) directed by [[Theo Angelopoulos]], and by [[Czechoslovakia|Czechoslovak]] soldiers in the movie ''[[Černí baroni (film)|Černí baroni]]'' (1992).

It is also featured in ''[[For Me and My Gal (film)|For Me and My Gal]]'' (1942) starring [[Judy Garland]] and [[Gene Kelly]] and ''[[Gallipoli (1981 film)|Gallipoli]]'' (1981) starring [[Mel Gibson]]. It was sung by the crew of {{GS|U-96|1940|2}} in [[Wolfgang Petersen]]'s 1981 film ''[[Das Boot]]'' (the arrangement was performed by the [[Alexandrov Ensemble|Red Army Choir]]). Morale is boosted in the submarine when the German crew sings the song as they begin patrolling in the North Atlantic Ocean. The crew sings it a second time as they cruise toward home port after near-disaster.

The cast of ''[[The Mary Tyler Moore Show]]'' march off screen singing the song at the conclusion of the series' [[Series finale|final episode]], after news anchor [[Ted Baxter]] (played by [[Ted Knight]]) inexplicably recited some of the lyrics on that evening's news broadcast.

The song is often cited when documentary footage of the First World War is presented. One example of its use is in the annual television special ''[[It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown]]'' (1966). [[Snoopy]]—who fancies himself a First World War [[flying ace]]—dances to a [[Medley (music)|medley]] of First World War-era songs played by [[Schroeder (Peanuts)|Schroeder]]. The song is included, and at that point Snoopy falls into a left-right-left marching pace. Schroeder also plays the song in ''[[Snoopy Come Home]]'' (1972) at Snoopy's send-off party. Also, Snoopy is seen singing the song out loud in a series of strips about his going to the [[1968 Winter Olympics]]. In another strip, Snoopy is walking such a long distance to reach Tipperary that he lies down exhausted and notes, "They're right, it is a long way to Tipperary." On a different occasion, Snoopy walks along and begins to sing the song, only to meet a sign that reads, "Tipperary: One Block." In a [[Sunday comics|Sunday strip]] wherein Snoopy, in his World War I fantasy state, walks into [[Marcie (Peanuts)|Marcie]]'s home, thinking it a French café, and falls asleep after drinking all her root beer, she rousts him awake by loudly singing the song.

In 1916, survivors of the sinking of {{HMS|Tipperary|1915|6}} in the [[Battle of Jutland]] were identified by their rescuers on {{HMS|Sparrowhawk|1912|6}} because they were singing "It's a Long Way to Tipperary" in their lifeboat.<ref>{{Cite web|title=The Fighting at Jutland|url=http://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/rg_seawarfare_jutlandfighting.htm|access-date=2018-10-09|website=www.kiplingsociety.co.uk}}</ref>

In 1942, as the Japanese [[hell ship]] ''[[Lisbon Maru]]'' was sinking, Royal Artillery POWs trapped in the vessel are reported to have sung the song.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/stories-44814053|title=British POWs sank with the Lisbon Maru - should it be raised?|date=14 July 2018|access-date=8 January 2021|website=Bbc.com}}</ref>
