Warning: some spoilers for the current series of HBO’s The Last of Us ahead
Those who tuned into the most recent episode of HBO’s ratings winner The Last of Us would have encountered many things: panic attacks, mooncups, monkeys roaming around a university campus. One thing you definitely won’t have seen is a marauding horde of the undead racing towards our protagonists, Joel and Ellie. Or, likewise, a small gathering of the undead. Or even a solitary “lurcher”. Episode six of The Last of Us was an entirely zombie-less episode.
