There's an old (well, now old) episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer where The Hush comes to town, and everyone loses the ability to speak.

I've no idea which came first - edit: Buffy episode did - but I strongly suspect it was the inspiration for this audio drama, where the Hush is a sentient weapon left over from the Time War between the Time Lords and the Daleks, is on board a pirate radio station just outside Liverpool in the 1960s, and is looking for a way to escape and propagate.

In-universe, this is presented as a recording of the what went on onboard the ship, with David Tennant's Doctor warning the listener NOT to listen to the end as otherwise the Hush might escape ...

The result in an OK story: it's not the worst Dr Who audio drama I've listened to, but nor is it the best.
