'''''The Lost Files''''' is a series of three radio dramas released prior to the fourth series of ''[[Torchwood]]''. These dramas aired as BBC Radio 4's ''[[The Afternoon Play|Afternoon Play]]'' on 11, 12 and 13 July 2011 and feature the regular cast. Although broadcast to coincide with the airing of ''[[Torchwood: Miracle Day]]'', two of the episodes are set prior to the ''[[Torchwood: Children of Earth]]'' miniseries of 2009, as they include the character of Ianto Jones, who is killed off in the 2009 miniseries. The episode "The House of the Dead", however, is set right before "Children of Earth"'s epilogue.
