Jack is a neurosurgeon from the USA. In the immediate aftermath of the plane crash he is the first to react
to the crisis - overcoming his own pain to rescue the wounded. With his inner strength and sharp brain he quickly emerges as a leader to the survivors, who increasingly
look to him for guidance. From the moment Flight 815 crashed on the island, Dr. Jack Shephard emerged as the reluctant leader of the group. Jack's closest ally is Kate, but their intimate friendship sparks a rivalry with Sawyer, who seems convinced
she harbours a guilty secret. And why did Jack have such a ready and convenient supply of alcohol to sterilise the crash wounds on his back?
Perhaps the good doctor has some skeletons in his own closet.

Although her past is shrouded in mystery, Kate's positive qualities are clear from her first moments on the island. In the initial crisis she shows bravery and determination, stitching the wounds on Jack's lacerated back despite having
no medical training. Intelligent and level-headed, she strikes up a close friendship with Jack, but not everyone warms to her. Sawyer, in particular
- convinced she is not the innocent she first appears - is full of awkward questions... A beauty with a dark past, Kate was being escorted back to the USA by a court marshal after being charged with the murder
of her father. |

A middle manager in a Californian box company with a geekish obsession with wargames and survivalism, John
Locke is a mystery to everyone - even himself. Raised by a foster mother, an investigation into his biological parents has left him confused and embittered
- and less complete than before... But does he really have a mystical connection with the island - and what is the nature of his previous association
with Hurley? Charlie is a musician from Manchester, England. A bass player from the band Drive Shaft, his rock 'n' roll
lifestyle have left him ill-prepared for the elemental struggle now facing him. But he quickly demonstrates an unsuspected strength, volunteering to accompany Jack and Kate in the search
for the missing transceiver, despite the threat of the mysterious creature in the jungle. It soon becomes clear that Charlie has long been in the grip of his own private crisis, which has left him
bruised and battered, but also cunning and resourceful. And there is something Charlie is even more afraid of than the unknown... A native of Tennessee, Sawyer's slow southern drawl barely masks his quick temper. A smart-talking rebel, full of rude insults and crude suggestions, he soon alienates himself from most of
the survivors. And his unappealing habit of collecting and hoarding items from the crash only fuels their hatred. But are his arrogance and aggression just another con trick? Or do they hide a tragedy from his past that
torments him still? The survivors in Lost are all strangers to each other. Even the blood relatives... Michael is Walt's father - a construction worker from New York who once dreamed of becoming an architect.
When his girlfriend gave birth to his son he gave up these dreams to support his young family. And then found his girlfriend was leaving him for another man. Years later, her sudden death leaves him flying to Australia in the company of Walt, the son he hasn't seen
in years. And this isn't turning into the kind of father/son bonding trip he had in mind...
Early on, Sayid clashes with Sawyer, who accuses him of being a terrorist. Sayid then reveals that he is a
veteran military officer who saw service in the Gulf War. Albeit in the Iraqi Republican Guard... With his background in communications, Sayid's skills could be invaluable in the survivors' rescue plans -
a fact quickly recognised by Jack, who includes him in his leadership circle. But is Sayid communicating all the facts about himself? Perhaps Sawyer's early suspicions about Sayid are
nearer the truth than anyone realises...
