Silence
You may be looking for The Silence.

Silence was the absence of sound.

On Vortis, Barbara Wright noted the silence, comparing it to a cemetery. (TV: The Web Planet)

On Xeros, Barbara was the first to notice the silence, describing it as "the sort of silence you can almost hear." Ian Chesterton likened it to that of a graveyard. The silence was the result of the TARDIS having jumped a time track. (TV: The Space Museum)

On a doomed planet, the First Doctor was the first to notice the silence, which reminded him of Xeros. In this case, the silence was due to the complete lack of animal life. (TV: Galaxy 4)

A mobile phone could be put on "silent", so that it would not make a noise when a call or notification came through. Sarah's phone could not be put on silent due to being broken. (TV: Eve of the Daleks)

Annoyed by Ruby Sunday's comment that he was a half pint of shandy at a ball in 1813, Lord Barton told her that she should learn to be admired in silence. (TV: Rogue [+]Kate Herron and Briony Redman, Doctor Who series 14 (BBC One and Disney+, 2024).)
