The Lost Stories is a Big Finish Productions audio drama range that brings unproduced Doctor Who television scripts to life. These are stories that were planned, and in many cases fully scripted, for the original 1963-1989 run of Doctor Who but were cancelled or replaced before production. Big Finish adapted them as full-cast audio dramas, often featuring actors from the television series reprising their roles.

The range covers stories from multiple Doctor eras, from the First Doctor through the Seventh. Paul Finch was among the writers who contributed to the series, which also includes adaptations alongside related Doctor Who anthologies and story collections. Some titles in this range, like Tales of Trenzalore and Time Lord Fairy Tales, sit adjacent to the Lost Stories as part of the broader Doctor Who publishing program at Big Finish and BBC Books.
