Doctor Who: Redacted teases the Doctor being "erased from existence"

"Can you hear me? Planet Earth – is this getting through? Something is coming. Something is coming for you. My name is the Doctor," she says. "You might not remember me but I remember you. I need you to listen to me. You're in danger."

The Doctor continues: "Normally I'd drop right in to help you with that but something's stopping me from getting through. I don't know much yet, I'm still figuring it out, but you're forgetting me. You're forgetting us – me and my friends, and everyone who's ever helped me. It's like they're disappearing.

"No, worse than that. They're being erased from existence. Redacted from reality and if you're listening to this and know who I am, then it's coming for you too so please listen.

"I know it's weird, I know it's scary, I know it seems impossible but sometimes you have to step up and do the weird, scary, impossible thing because someone has to. Remember me. Remember the Doctor."

You can listen to the full trailer on the BBC Sounds website.
