More Radio Four drama’s for Torchwood

Several news sites are reporting that there could be up to three new Torchwood episodes broadcast on Radio Four over the summer. The episodes would follow on from the five-part miniseries Children of Earth which is due to air on BBC One soon.

It seems that following the broadcast of the Torchwood mini-series Children of Earth on BBC One we’ll be getting some more action from the Torchwood team but on Radio Four instead. It’s been widely reported that they’ll be at least three more Torchwood drama’s broadcast on Radio Four, most likely over the summer. The three audio drama’s are already available to pre-order from sites such as Play.com and Amazon and when magazine SFX contacted Radio Four the news seem to be confirmed – although Radio Four didn’t reveal any more details than that.

The Torchwood drama’s on Radio Four follow last year’s drama on the station broadcast to co-inside with the launch of the Hadron Collider in Switzerland. The one-off drama, Lost Souls, starred John Barrowman, Freema Agyeman, Eve Myles and Gareth David-Lloyd in their respective roles. According to the listings for the three new drama’s, on sites such as Play, Freema Agyeman is down top reprise her role of Martha Jones for the Radio Four episodes. However, this may be simply the case that the sites are reusing the credit listings from Lost Souls until new ones are issued by the BBC.
