Glad to see that it's (finally) out but, alas, because of work I'm probably not going to have a chance to listen to it until tomorrow...

Just listened to The Lady in the Lake. An excellent opening to the set. It’s dark, emotional and adds some great backstory to River as well as being an interesting sequel of sorts to A Good Man Goes to War.
It’s nice to listen to something so soon after release, rather than trying to find an hour in the evening after work.

A Requiem for the Doctor carries on the high standard. I think I preferred The Lady in the Lake a little bit more, but they’re different stories doing different things and there’s plenty to like. I love the way the Doctor and River are brought together, it’s different than usual, and I like that he has an original companion in it. Davison and Kingston really shine together; I think Davison’s Doctor is made for audio. And it’s still a novelty to have him doing guest appearances outside of the main range, more so the fact he’s travelling solo or with someone new.
And what a fantastic final five minutes. I’m looking forward to My Dinner With Andrew.

Well...
That Was A Fun Ride... They’ve definitely got River on a roll now!!! Out of the three box-sets so far this has to be my Favourite! Alex is on top form,

What a great timey wimey romp My Dinner With Andrew is! I loved the structure of the story with it being broken down into a fine dining menu. The story doesn’t really add much to Kovarian, bar it presenting another attempt at her assassinating the Doctor, but I’m guessing that’s left for The Furies.

The Furies is a great finale. Some nice world building and insights into Kovarian, River’s upbringing and the other test subjects. The music being a nursery rhyme version of the Diary theme tune was well played and rather sadistic!
And that’s the set finished. Great stuff all round and, for me, the best River set yet. I interpreted it as preceding the other River Song material Big Finish have released so far; is that just me? Roll on Series 4 in the summer!

wow that was one of the fastest paced BF audios i have ever heard. man that just pulled me along. 5 and river sound great. i 'll have to hear it again to follow the timey whimey stuff.
great job BF i like river now and i wasnt a fan from the show.
so far 11 seems the least likely doctor for river to fall for. 5 8 12 seem a much better fit for her.

I have to agree - this was definitely the best River Song set yet. After the first story I found myself wondering how on earth they could possibly top that and the box set went on to do so each and every time. If this set could actually make me doubt the Doctor was going to get out of this one alive, that's a win right there. But poor Andrew... All around, a resounding success - I certainly expect this to remain on my "best of" list this year.

Wow... I wasn't expecting too much of this one because although I enjoyed the first two series I didn't think they were mindblowing or anything, and I didn't particularly care for Kovarian (or anything to do with series 6 of Doctor Who, a real low point of the show for me) but this really did it for me. I loved hearing scripts from writers we don't hear from that often as well as the regulars. I especially loved My Dinner With Andrew, which was a little unexpected for me because as, as I have said, I think the series would benefit from not having the Doctor in as much, but Peter Davison was just brilliant in this - it's always fun to have an actor playing a character pretending to be someone else.
