I don’t put much importance on the “Recommend” function. It seems especially moot to recommend something without even listening to it, much like the reviews on Amazon prior to a products release. I've been agreeing with this up until lately - it didn't seem quite right to me that people would recommend things they haven't even heard - but I guess if people are sort of using the "recommend" button as a "like" button to express enthusiasm about a release (even if it's not out yet) I probably can't see what would be wrong with that. You do also have the option of re-clicking to remove your recommendation, but an experienced BF listener can usually gauge some new releases as destined to be good. Based on BF's track record and the list of writers and actors associated with it, I would be genuinely surprised if the forthcoming Donna Noble set was not amazing.

Huh, interesting placement - I guess it makes sense that they weren't going for the obvious "searching for the Doctor" route between The Runaway Bride and Partners In Crime, so that it's not too similar to the upcoming Rose boxset. Great set of writers too, so I'm very much looking forward to this, can't wait for some more details!

Love Donna Noble as a character and love Catherine Tate as a performer. Easy purchase.

Count me in, though it maybe a little bit before I can place my order. Money’s a wee bit tight just at the moment, and I’ve got five or six other preorders I’ll need to put in before this one

As with the majority of the Torchwood releases, this is a pass for me. Like Pollard and Lucie Miller, I have a hard enough time tolerating Donna when the Doctor is in the picture - on her own I'm not overly interested. The only way I'm getting this release is when it is on sale for peanuts and that won't be happening in the next few years.
I will say, the choice of writers for the set is excellent.

Cover, story details and cast revealed! www.bigfinish.com/releases/v/donna-noble-kidnapped-2107Donna Noble has come home. But she’s about to be whisked away by aliens – and they’re not as friendly as the Doctor!
After the trauma of the Library, Donna wants a break, to see old friends and family, to remind herself of normality.
Only Donna’s new normal involves trips through time and space and visiting alien worlds. So when she and BFF Nat start looking into strange abductions, they are dragged into a whole new universe of trouble...1. Out of this World by Jacqueline RaynerDonna’s home, but she’s not quite herself. Sylvia has some ideas to bring her out of herself – involving an old friend, and speed-dating... As schoolgirl BFFs Donna and Natalie get reacquainted, a mysterious stranger dogs their steps. Is the Doctor keeping tabs on her, or is the truth far more sinister? 2. Spinvasion by John DorneyDonna and Nat have been stolen – along with the TARDIS - and they find themselves crash-landing on an alien world. On the planet Valdacki a very successful invasion is already underway. And it’s one that has the very best PR. 3. The Sorcerer of Albion by James GossTrying to get home, Donna and Nat end up in the right place at the wrong time – the Middle Ages! A monastery is under siege from the Burning Knights, and the great Sorcerer Parval calls on the assistance of another great mage. He has summoned Merlin herself – or as Nat knows her, Donna Noble! 4. The Chiswick Cuckoos by Matt FittonDonna’s home, but she’s not quite herself. Sylvia couldn’t be more pleased to see her daughter finally getting on with her life. But an alien plot is nearing completion, and the world needs saving. The Doctor is nowhere to be found, so it’s all up to Donna – and Nat! Catherine Tate (Donna Noble) Jacqueline King (Sylvia Noble) Sebastian Armesto (Garrison) Timothy Bentinck (Ganthak) Isla Blair (Marge) Phil Cornwell (Parsnip) Anthony Howell (Adrian) James Joyce (Josh Carter) Nisha Nayar (Coleridge) David Schofield (Parval) Dan Starkey (Dennis) Niky Wardley (Natalie) Lydia West (Vivien)

I am not quite on board with the 10th Doctor companion sets yet. I think I will wait myself for some reviews before I commit (as I have done with Vienna and Jenny!).
Otherwise... I kind of feel like some food taster for you now.
But that also means there is a good chance (drumroll) I will convince you sooner or later to listen to Green Life of the dreaded range starting with "T" and I am afraid you will enjoy it. Sorry about that in advance.

Noticed that the cover for this is featured on the front page of the Big Finish website. It's either newly released or I hadn't seen it before. Interesting that The Doctor appears so prominently.
