Radio broadcast

Wotcher, everyone. This is Ted. Ted Tonks, if you aren't familiar with my name or my voice.

So... well. [slight rustling, audible throat clearing] I'm just going to preface this by saying this kind of broadcast isn't exactly my strongest suit, but I just felt it was fitting. [audible heavy sigh heard] Lee was - is - a good man, and his loss, as well as so many others, seems so heavy. He brought a lot to this village with this wireless and knew just what to say in times like this.

Listen, I know a lot of you may be angry. I am, too. Those of you from 1998 onward, far from my time, it's not fair to you - you've had to live through this again. The purpose of this village, as I've known it, was to give people a second chance, and some of those people lost that today, too. But their disappearances are not in vain. Some died fighting for us, for our status quo here. Others were pushed back home against their will, but they fought. They all fought, and if it were me in their place, that's how I'd want to go if I had to, too.

I wanted to give a special thanks to Roxy, who did a brilliant job holding down the fort. I know there are so many you are missing tonight, and you deserve your space. Frankie, thank you for giving the village at large the information of our causualties.

And Lee, mate... [music fades in here] thank you for this gift. This isn't goodbye. We'll see you again soon, I hope. And that goes for everyone else who's gone tonight.

[after song plays] I'll be here if there's anything you want to hear. Sometimes, when we don't have the words, there's a song that says what we need to hear.
