"Over Hill Over Dale, Our Love Will Never Fail" - The sentimental phrase
"Over Hill Over Dale, Our Love Will Never Fail" was inscribed on the wedding
ring of Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan (Loretta Swit), a Korean War nurse
working with the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital on the military comedy
M*A*S*H/CBS/1972-83. Her husband was Lt. Colonel Donald Penobscott whom she
later divorced. On episode No.136 "Patent 4077" broadcast 1/10/1978 Corporal
Maxwell Klinger lost Hot Lips ring and replaced it with a copy made by a Korean
metalsmith. Unfortunately, the inscription now read: "Over hill over dale, our
love will ever fail" (The Letter "N" unluckily omitted). A similar storyline
aired on the sitcom WINGS/NBC/1990-97 when Joe Hackett (Timothy Daly) realized
the inscription on the ring he planned to give his fiancée Helen Chappel
(Crystal Bernard) misspelled Helen's name. It read: "To my darling Melen." The
ring had "I" 2 clarity and a slight flaw in it's girdle.
