Clunky script (near the beginning: "We're not so different," says a bad guy, without irony. Later: "Fight it, C'rizz!" says the Doctor, sounding as bored as I am, as C'rizz endures yet another mind control incident.)

The Doctor cites the learned behavior of blue tits as evidence of nature having some sort of global memory. Ick.

The story tries to claim that the Doctor avoids visiting newly formed planets, because it might cause them psychic harm. Let us never speak of this claim again. ( )

I'm afraid Scaredy Cat didn't leave much impression on me (and I've listened to it twice). It is in keeping with the duller end of the earlier Eighth Doctor audios. Various conceptual entities get incarnated as personalities and the Doctor, Charley and C'rizz eventually clean up the mess. ( )
