Unhappy Need advice on growing tomatoes indoors

Hi,

This summer I embarked on growing tomatoes inside from seed - I live in Scotland where harsh weather conditions prevented these from ever going outside. By the end of the summer I had no fruit but plenty of tall green plants that grew up against a south facing window.

It seemed a bit of a waste to give up on the plants so I have continued to grow these with plenty of water and a bit of plant food. They have gotten taller, about 4ft high - but no fruit!

Can someone tell me if there is any point to continue to grow these plants through the winter? Are they supposed to die off instead? Also, whilst their height is impressive, why have I not got any fruit?

It would be a shame just to get rid of these, I have 11 plants altogether. But if I am continuing to water and feed in earnest, I'd rather know now.
