...sitting on the doormat
"Yaranaa!"
It means literally 'the soul of the vengeful': Those whose lives have been cut short early and died with empty hearts.
Millennia ago, the people of the planet Caludaar pledged never to set foot on their sister planet Endarra...
But what secrets does the planet hold? There are laws even the Doctor won't break...
And while C'rizz learns that some tragedies can't be averted, Charley must decide who the enemy actually is.
For death walks on Endarra, and this time she won't be denied...

A decent if uninspiring entry in the Big Finish monthly series; worth a listen but far from the best of the lot.

Revenge of the Living Planet...again.
‘Scaredy Cat’ is a passable Doctor Who adventure, with a slightly contrived yet well-paced storyline. A lot of the elements are over-familiar from other stories – mad scientists, a serial killer bad guy with hammy dialogue, a living planet – but the performances and production are generally solid enough for this to remain an enjoyable back to basics 8th Doctor story. One mild bone of contention is the very short running time, with a story that would easily fit onto 1 CD being spread onto 2 in order to bump the price up. Hmmm…

Dull
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.
