Question Lost - Hanso foundation 'advert'

for any other Lost followers.....

anyone else notice the 'advert' for the Hanso foundation at the beginning of the commercial break half way through Lost Season 2 Ep3? (on E4)

For more information phone 0800 666 640 it says.

Called it out of curiosity (its free afterall) and several options take you to some french/german recorded messages.

Couldnt understand it (no too hot on other languages). Anyone called the number and understood the recordedmessages?

I noticed that advert too.....wasn't really paying attention but thought the name rang a bell!

Haven't rung the number but wouldn't understand it even if I did if its in French or German, unless its ordering a ham sandwich or some other basic phrases I learnt at school!

From what I understand, it's a fake website that's linked to the show "Lost". It's meant to come out in the series (Which one) that the Hanso Foundation are responsible for what is happening on the Island.

How ???? Guess we'll have to keep watching............. a lot. It was on the news a while ago, that the writers have enough material for 9 series.

Hanso foundation are the parent company of the Dharma Initative, of which you'll hear more about later

Looks like there are three episodes left of season 2, including the two hour season finale

Hello

As above, how bizarre was Episode 20? Still, makes a change from the boring 'filler' ones.

Watched EP19 last night, again fairly good and didnt really grip you til the last 30seconds and the answer or follow on wont be until the end of the series now. Im unsure where its all going although Im intrigued about Lock and the door + blue light. (trying to keep it a little cryptic for those who dont want it spoiling) Will download EP20 tonight.

Fuzz, there was 24 episodes in Series 1 so 3 more with the last being a 2hour one makes perfect sence.

Is it available for download already? I just got E22 at the end of last week so is there only one more 2 hour finale after that?

Just done some digging ont he Hanso Foundations web site and found some interesting clues which Ive googled and found a little more. Some interesting stuff out there all linked to Lost. Liddy Wales seems to be a key clue, one of the employees in the Hanso Foundation who doesnt have a picture.

I didn't download it, watched it as it was aired (I'm in Toronto and it's shown on CTV, though I watched it on some US channel which showed it a 9pm rather than CTV's 10pm - I've got some time shifting thing with my digital package that allows that typw of thing)
You're quite correct, E23 and E24 are part one and two of the season finale, not sure wether they will be downloadble as two separate episodes or one very large one? Well worth it though.

Seems season 3 will air in fall 2006.
