It beat "Is it still raining? I hadn't noticed" uttered to Hugh Grant by Andie MacDowell Four Weddings and a Funeral, into second place.
Leonardo DiCaprio's "I'm the king of the world" line in Titanic was third.

A spokesman OnePoll.com, who carried out the study, said: "Nobody puts Baby in the corner is one of the most famous movie lines of all time and you immediately think of Dirty Dancing when you hear it.
"Women swoon as soon as they hear the line and dream of someone saying it to them, although men don't seem to have the same reaction.
"The scene is one of the most iconic movie moments and that line makes all the difference."
