Elizabeth Mitchell teases 'Lost' return

Elizabeth Mitchell has speculated over Juliet's return to Lost.

The season six premiere saw her character pass away in Sawyer's arms following the hydrogen bomb explosion, but Mitchell has confirmed that she will return again "towards the end" of the season.

Asked by TV Guide if viewers may see Juliet in the alternate world story, she replied: "That's my assumption. I'm assuming that we will."

Discussing when she will reappear, she added: "It will be towards the end. They are in their last bit of shooting, so it will be near the end somewhere, but I don't know where."

Mitchell also addressed Juliet's cryptic message to Sawyer before she died, in which she simply said, 'It worked' - a possible reference to the alternate universe.

"How cool was that?! That's what I thought, that's exactly what I thought. You know how devious and genius the producers are. It could be anything. We can think we have it completely sewn up and they just turn us on our ears; that's what they do."

Lost continues Tuesdays at 9pm on ABC in the US and returns tonight at 9pm on Sky1 in the UK.
