I can imagine a Doctor Who episode that starts with banana phobia, and later the Doctor discovers there are aliens posing as bananas in Sweden. Some young children can see through their disguise. And that’s why the minister has had a phobia since childhood.

Sounds a little like Resident Alien (if you omit the bananas and Sweden).

Sounds a bit like Swedish Resident Alien (if you add the Sweden back in)

Swedish Resident Banana Alien. Why not just go all the way?

Banana phobia starts with the Doctor replacing your squareness gun with one
