Technical problems overcome, I received three and a half episodes of Lost in the post this week from Justin. I watched them all in one evening when I should have been planning for the big trip. They were amazing episodes, and one particularly was a well-made, self-contained story that was very much in the vein of something like Roald Dahl’s Tales of the Unexpected.
Lost really is a fantastically deep and well-made show – it combines drama, mystery, humour, elements of horror and science fiction, great characterisation and well-thought out plots. The overall story is (slowly) reaching a very exciting and seemingly crucial point. I am always left wanting the next episode.
Justin tells me that I am now about 4 episodes behind what’s currently on Sky One and these will be winging their way to me in the post soon. Then the final episode of the series comes just before the Faroes trip.
In other news, I will also be getting lost in Durham this weekend – I am heading to the so-called “north-east” for a joinee gathering. Full report upon my return.

We watched the season 3 finale last night. Brilliant stuff. But as is usual for a Lost season finale, It’s a semi-confusing head melter that raises a bunch of new questions and makes it difficult to contemplate waiting 6 months for the next episode!

I’m not surprised, mo0k. Looking forward to watching it.
