The phrase "Great Scott" was commonly found in superhero comic books, including Superman. Dr. Watson habitually used the expression in the Rathbone-Bruce Sherlock Holmes Films made between 1939 and 1946. The exclamation can also be found in C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia, such as by Digory in the first book The Magician's Nephew, or by Peter in the second book The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. One of the better-known contemporary uses was as the catchphrase of Doctor Emmett Brown in the Back to the Future film trilogy. Christopher Lloyd, who portrayed Brown in the films, used the expression in TV ads during 2006-2007 which refer back to this role ("Great Scott! I forgot to tell Marty about DirecTV!")
Other occurrences include the television cartoon Sheep in the Big City, which has a character called "Great Scott" who appears every time anyone says the phrase, replying "Ye-e-e-s?". Mr. Wilson, a character in the Dennis the Menace TV series, frequently used the expression. In The Rocky Horror Picture Show, one of the characters is named Scott. At one point one of the other characters sees Scott and exclaims, "Great Scott!" This line is typically lampooned by the audience, who often throw toilet paper - a nod to the Scottissue brand. In the movie version of Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets, the Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher Gilderoy Lockhart exclaims "Great Scott! Look at the time..."
