[The Doctor is looking off screen for a moment, mumbling.]
No, no, they shouldn't be here. They can't even get the sort of-
[He suddenly realizes that the device is recording.]
Oh, hello there! This is the Doctor, speaking. Not the doctor of anything, just the Doctor. Anyways, even with the lights out you might or might not have noticed some statues out and about, they may even seem like they're moving, or following you.
That's because they are. Those aren't statues, they're life forms from the beginning of the universe. Or just about. Really, really old either way. They have a defense mechanism called quantum-locking. Basically, when they're observed, they're stone. Brilliant, really, because you can't kill a stone. But the moment you look away or even blink, they're free to move. And they do move. Very, very quickly.
Whatever you do, don't let them touch you. They don't kill you, but they send you back in time to before you were born. You live out your life there and when you die, they feed off the energy of the life you potentially had in your time. Really, sort of the nicest murderers in the whole universe.
Anyways, the point is, you can't let them touch you, so you or someone else has to be observing them the entire time to keep them from moving. Your only hope to stop them is to trick them into looking at each other, which is really tricky because they cover their eyes when they're statues just for that very reason.
[The Doctor's expression gets very serious as he leans into the camera.]
In summary: Don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast, faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back. Don't look away. And don't blink. Good luck.
