[The video turns on to a very, very smug Eleven, chuckling away about something or other.]
Right, right, another Christmas come and gone--going, really--with no sign of any catastrophe. No Sycorax, Sontarans, Slyther, Silurians? No Cybermen, Cyberleaders, Cyberkings, Cyber-we-need-to-think-of-better-names? Not even a single Dalek or even an Angel to be seen, which is really not any reassurance now that I think of it. Forget that bit, that bit's rubbish.
But. And this is the important bit, listen to this bit.
[He leaned in almost conspiratorially, grinning all the same as he did. In the background, an Abra was busy sticking his face into the bag of berries that came with the care package.]
It doesn't matter. Any of them could pop round for tea, not a problem. Because I have this.
[He held up a device only somewhat larger than a pen. It makes a sound at the touch of a button, lighting up vivid green at the end as it did.]
[What he does not realize is that this is all it can do now.]

And no, it's not a weapon--doesn't maim, wound, or kill. It's a sonic screwdriver.

... I'll admit to being a little confused. How does one use sound to perform any sort of action similar to a screwdriver?

[Hopeful smile.]
I've been told the reason we're all stuck here is technological in nature, and I've been hoping to find some ways to catch up. My own world's a... little behind.

Well... how much can you tell me?
