Suckers (audio story)

 was the sixty-fourth story in the Torchwood - Monthly Range by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Alexander Stewart.

Publisher's summary
Shireen's not exactly enjoying being sectioned, but she's been in worse places. That psychiatric unit in Brecon was a right dump. This one's alright, though. There's table tennis, art therapy and they even get to do a bit of gardening.

There's only one problem. Shireen's roommate. Toshiko - she's a total space cadet, convinced the unit is overrun by aliens. Yeah, right.

Plot
Detained for six months under section 3 of the Mental Health Act, Shireen is moved to Chelmsley Grove for her final month and given a room with a medicated Tosh, who warns her that the hospital is infested with aliens. Tosh has been unable to contact Jack or Suzie at Torchwood as all calls are logged by Felicia, but Shireen lends her her mobile phone and she accidentally calls Jubilee Pizza instead. Already sceptical, Shireen believes that she is insane.
