Lots of doctor who stories involve a remote base, with a small crew of humans, under siege by nasty monsters.
This is a base under siege story with a difference. In that the humans inside this base are trying desperately to get out. But there is a monster in their midst.
The tardis lands in a strange building. And they quickly meet people who are desperate to get out of it. The doctor is separated from his companions, and meets the people who built the place.
There is a monster loose in it, and it kills without discrimination. And since it's a monster of the mind, you can't see where it's coming from. Or who it's with.
A good solid piece of traditional doctor who, this is a pretty engaging listen. The characters manage to rise above the level of cliche to become three dimensional, and the plot grips all the way.
The last episode is dramatic stuff, when everything comes to a head. Not everyone walks away. And the reaction the doctor has to this is brilliantly portrayed by paul mcgann.
A good strong audio story that's well worth a listen

I was going to review this a good while back when i first heard it. But, due to whatever reason, it took till now and my second listen. And i am very glad i waited. For this is a fantastic story. The first time round i clearly...just didn't get it. Its difficult to explain. The first time round i percieved it as a pointless escapade with lots of shouting about the Brainworm and lots of violent head-meltings. On second listening, you appreciate something...so much more potent about it. Particularly the Brainworm...which, in my opinion is one of the best monsters...of AUDIO. You don't need to see it (indeed, you can't) to know its there and that it means business. The sound crew excel here - the unrelenting menace of the brainworm is brought about by audio cues and a superb soundtrack. However, this being audio, you always hope for a standout moment; whether it be one of the spectacular cliffhangers or simply one of the Doctor's quotes...well in this one, you certainly won't be disapointed. The "I JUST WANT TO GET OUT OF HERE" line had me grinning like an idiot on the London Underground. It was brilliant.
Some of the ideas are magnificently realised; the Cube itself, a prison for Psykes (psychological soldiers) - and the sense of inescapability and claustrophobia never more so heightened.
Paul McGann is excellent, showing a little edgier side than the normal, yet retaining his hilarious immaturity. The supporting cast are all as good as can be expected, although i am getting tired of C'Rizz now. Charley is the doc's companion and can stay as long as she wants, but come on C'Rizz, lets have your dark secret revealed and be done with it.
Shhh listen...here that music...that means...that means...its coming. Its the Brainworm...

This audio drama finds the 8th Doctor and companions Charley and C'rizz trapped in a military prison for psychic soldiers, fighting off the attentions of both the sadistic jailers and a malevolent `Brain Worm' that is feeding on the minds of the inmates. While this play provides the requisite thrills and spills it seems to be a rather uninspired collection of ideas lifted from other science fiction stories, and with the Brain Worm itself being an invisible non-speaking presence we are left with a lot of repetitive dialogue as various characters run around the corridors of the prison screaming "The Brain Worm is coming! Here it comes!" and the cheesy keyboard incidental music is rather off-putting. Paul McGann puts in a strong central performance as the Doctor, but many of the supporting characters are reduced to hysterics by the last episode, with this being a very `shouty' audio. While it's by no means awful and has it's odd enjoyable moments, `Something Inside' ultimately outstays it's welcome, and is a rather mediocre slice of science fiction horror.
