- You may be looking for the sweet.
Humbug was an exclamation the Ninth Doctor used after Charles Dickens refused to participate in Gwyneth's séance. (TV: The Unquiet Dead)
Behind the scenes
The use of "Humbug" in The Unquiet Dead is a reference to Dickens' own character Ebeneezer Scrooge, who is widely known for uttering the exclamation.
