Sky has apologised to fans of Lost for technical problems during the series finale.

The last ever episode of the cult hit was aired at 5am this morning so that viewers could watch the show at the same time as US West Coast residents.

However, a technical hitch caused a blackout during the programme.

In an announcement on the Sky Player website, the channel said: "We'd like to apologise for this morning's blackout during Sky1's live simulcast of the series finale of Lost.

"We're currently investigating what went wrong, and if it's any consolation we'll have the entire episode available to watch as a catch-up title by lunchtime today. Once again, apologies."
