The Lost was the eighth and final episode of Class. It was written by Patrick Ness, and directed by Julian Holmes. Due to the series being cancelled by BBC Three, the episode serves as the final televised Class story, leaving the ending cliffhanger unresolved.
A number of major events happened in this episode. It saw Corakinus kill both Varun Singh and Vivian Adeola, as well as the death of Corakinus himself. Charlie finally activated the Cabinet of Souls, using it to destroy the Shadow Kin, and he also became the Shadow King. It also marked the death of Dorothea Ames after she was killed by a Weeping Angel. It showed the death of April at the hands of Charlie, and her return to life in Corakinus' body.
Synopsis
