Lost - ‘Cabin Fever’, Sky One, Sunday 9pm

Last night’s show delved much deeper into John Locke’s past and it appears he has always had a very strong connection with the Island. As a newborn baby he received a hospital visit from the Islander (whose name I can’t remember!) and another from him as an older child, in much the same way as Ben did when he was a child, only already on the Island.

From what we already know of Locke’s past he appeared to be very unlucky, but whilst in hospital he was contacted by another Islander, working as a hospital porter, who told him to view his past in a positive way - he survived being pushed out of a window by his father, he survived his mother prematurely giving birth to him after being mown down by a car! He also suggested Locke go on a walkabout, which is what led him to being on Oceanic flight 815.

So was the whole reason for the plane crashing, just to get John on the Island?

Back on the freighter Keamy is on the warpath and prepares to torch the entire Island. Sayid, aided by the Captain, manages to escape with a dinghy and heads back to the Island to try to rescue as many of the survivors as he can but Desmond doesn’t want to return with him.

After a dream showing him where to find a map that locates Jacob’s cabin, Locke, Ben and Hurley make their way to it, but only Locke goes in. Inside he finds Jack’s dad (!) and Claire (!) they tell him baby Aaron must get off the Island and to save the Island………he must move it!

Was Ben just a temporary replacement as Island ‘protector’ until Locke found it?

Is Claire dead and if not why isn’t she leaving the Island with Aaron? Will Jack find out she is his half-sister?

Why does Jack’s dad have such a strong connection with the Island?
