Was it true that one Dr. Who episode arc had aliens who were defeated by one of the Doctor's female companions just by screaming her head off?
Answer to my own question - just how on earth could Victoria's hysterics have driven off those aliens? Was she the inspiration for Black Canary?

Yes, Victoria's amplified screaming defeated the "weed creatures" in Fury from the Deep (Second Doctor--Patrick Troughton).
According to the story, her scream had a particular vibrational frequency that disrupted the possessing weed-creature's influence over humans, and when amplified via transmitters and loudspeakers, could be used to directly destroy the weeds themselves.
