Humphrey Bogart was an actor. He was a 20th century (PROSE: The King of Terror) American (PROSE: The Shining Man) who was famous for his film noir roles. (PROSE: Of the City of the Saved...) Bogart often played private detectives (PROSE: Loving the Alien) who were prone to acting rashly without thinking through the consequences. (PROSE: Just War)

The Ninth Doctor claimed to have been in a film with Humphrey Bogart, who he claimed was the only man who ever beat him at chess. (AUDIO: Night of the Whisper)

Bogart's movies were so popular that many of his phrases gained a life of their own and were repeated or paraphrased at opportune occasions by

the Third Doctor: "Here's lookin' at chairs, kid"; (PROSE: Legacy)
Sam Jones: "this could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship!"; (PROSE: The Eight Doctors)
Fitz Kreiner: "Bourbon for me, and the same again for my scaly friend"; (PROSE: The Tomorrow Windows)
Bill Potts: "Play it again, Sam". (PROSE: The Shining Man)

Geoff Paynter considered Bogart films to be one of the greatest achievements of humanity. (PROSE: The King of Terror)

Ace once tried to end a phone call by claiming that Mr Bogart was not there. (PROSE: Illegal Alien)

SS Humphrey Bogart is clearly named after Humphrey Bogart.
The phrases "Play it again, Sam," "Here's lookin' at you, kid," and "This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship" are references to lines in the 1942 film Casablanca. Two of the lines differ slightly as Bogart actually says "I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship" at the end of the film and "Play it again, Sam" is never actually said in the film. Ingrid Bergman says "Play it Sam, play 'As Time goes By' but the line "Play it again, Sam" is never actually said.
