Emerson: 'Lost scenes are electrical'

Michael Emerson has described his scenes on Lost as "dangerous and electrical".

Speaking at this year's Emmy Awards, the 55-year-old actor - Benjamin Linus in the ABC series - also discussed the possibility of Jacob still being alive.

"Very often the scenes between Ben and John Locke are dangerous and electrical in a way that delights me," he said. "They feel theatrical and I like that."

He added: "I don't know if Jacob is killable; Ben stabbed someone, or it seems like he did. That's what I know."

Emerson was crowned 'Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Drama Series' at last night's awards, held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles.
