“ Tube Talk ”
Wow, how good was Lost last night? Finally, some of those questions are starting to be answered (even if it is all going a bit Heroes in the process).
In honour of this turnaround, today's Tube Talk is a Lost special, but if you're not a fan of spoilers then you should flee now. Away with you, off to look at pictures of our soaps editor cavorting with Ricky and Bianca off of EastEnders.
The Next Episode
Firstly, the next episode, which is Juliet-centric. It's a flashback, set entirely on the island, that reveals she was actually married to Goodwin (last seen being killed by Ana-Lucia in season two) but isn't so heartbroken as to resist the charms (?) of Jack.
There's also a field trip to new station The Orchid, which is home to "highly volatile and potentially dangerous" research.
Click below to watch two extended preview clips from the episode:
A Major Death
One final warning: if you want to avoid spoilers about what is a pretty major plot twist, then look away now.
In two weeks' time we learn that the final two members of "Oceanic Six" are Jin and Sun. One of the Oceanic Six will also DIE in a flashforward, and I have it on very good authority that the person being killed off is actually (highlight the text to the right to reveal): one of this pair, but I won't go so far as to say which. Of course, because they're being killed off in the future, they will still be part of the show in the present, any flashbacks to the past and any flashforwards before the point they are killed off. Why couldn't poor Charlie have "died" this way?
The return of Michael (and maybe Walt)
... will come in episode eight - the final before a five-week hiatus - called 'Meet Kevin Johnson'. The episode tracks what happened to Michael (is he now known as Kevin Johnson, perhaps?) since he left the island with his son. According to various reports, there are scenes set in New York where Michael meets up with.. wait for it... Mr. Friendly. Yes, the same Mr. Friendly shot dead by Sawyer at the end of season three.
The Future
Speaking to the New York Post this week, Lost guru Damon Lindelof outlined this roadmap for the final three seasons: "Season 4 is about who gets off the island and the fact that they need to get back. Season 5 is about why they need to get back, and season 6 is about what happens when they get back."

LOST is definitely at its best at the moment, and the writers and producers are really firing on all cylinders. The flashforwards have added an extra layer to the whole proceedings, and we are starting to get answers. There is a helluva lot of good TV at the moment, but LOST is great TV. It will also be nice to know that I will be able to enjoy LOST from beginning to end without the threat of cancellation because I have invested myself in so many good genre shows over the past few years, only to have them cancelled before reaching fruitition.
