3. Thank you. Finally, you’re listening to us. Okay, we think we just saw a shadow move under the door to your left. So, whatever you do, don’t go and have a look. We know that shadows are fascinating but...

5. See, now look what you’ve done! That’s a machete that’s just appeared out of the ground for no apparent reason!
