Last night’s E4 Lost Sep 29

A particularly good episode of Lost (“Raised by Another”) on E4 last night. Lot’s of spooky an exciting bits.

There was a certain amount of Christ sub-text, I thought: Claire conceives despite being on the pill, and a medium tells her the baby is important/dangerous. Then a man who (we’re to assume) wasn’t on the plane, apparently wants to prevent the birth – some anti-Christ plot here?

Some niggles, though, with the logbook bits. They agree that by removing the names of the dead from the plane’s manifest, they’ll be left with the names of the survivors. But the aeroplane broke into pieces and the survivors (and the deceased they survivors know about) have come from one section only, so many of the people on the manifest will be unaccounted for. Also, we established last two episodes back that Sawyer isn’t using his real name. If Sawyer isn’t the name on his passport (which it could be if he legally changed it), he’ll be the one who doesn’t appear in the logbook.

Still, what with Mira Furlan last week and a crazed madman this, it’s certainly picking up the pace.

I am, for the record, in the camp that doesn’t expect a decent explanation at the very end…

    You fiend! How can you tease us poor non-cable, satellite or now freeview plebs like this?

    When you say you don’t expect a decent explanation at the end do you mena that the proffered explanation shall be pants or that no explanation shall be proffered at all? I’m definately in one of those camps, the one in the cave.

    That the proffered explanation will fail to satisfy. I’m sure they’ll try though.
