I don't see what the big news is either. It's been listed on the site as "Series 1" for a while, so it's no surprise that it now has its' own section.

IIRC Big Finish decided to label all their first releases as Volume 1 (or Series 1), following the unplanned expansion of Dark Eyes into a series of 4 releases when it was originally only going to be the one. (Hence, no numeral on the first box set)

It has its own range… … I feel a right Berk now. No need to be , it just clicked for me too.
Don't judge me for this but I hope any future boxsets of this series also have guest starring roles for a Doctor and IF her mother turns up in them she's used sparingly.
I'm only buying Vol 1 because its got the Doctor in it and its reasonably priced.

I'd actually prefer if future box sets didn't have the Doctor in them (or didn't use him much). I'd rather have more solo adventures for River. Or maybe a Benny team-up? Or Brax?

Released on Boxing Day wow. Didn't expect that one so soon. Why did I agree to work Boxing Day?

I wonder if this means there's a tie in with the "Husbands of River Song", or whether BF are making the most of the "River love"?
Cheers

I am going to most likely save it for the week after New Years. Will need something to get me through the gloom of the Holidays being over.

Really should have seen this coming - it only makes too much sense to release this "on the heels" of the Christmas special.
Dear Santa, I have a last-minute addition to my list and I've been really good this year...

The art for the announcement evokes (for me) a feel of "Voyage of the Damned". Party, ship lights, and Astrid's outfit. I wonder if that's all coincidence?

Not prepared for River to meet Eight. He's really not her Doctor, is he?

I liked the original cover that they were displaying for this. But I like this one too. Looking at the cover, it has the same rough problem I have with the New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield. The cover looks more like The Eight Doctor Adventures: The Diary of River Song. The Doctor is front and center of the box. Like the first release of Benny's new Adventures, Benny is off center to the Tardis, and the Seventh Doctor is much larger on the cover.
It may be a bit nitpicky, but it feels that way.
Agreed. It's a bit misleading really; if I wanted an 8th Doctor adventure, I'd buy an 8DA, Dark Eyes or Doom Coalition. River Song's box set should be about River Song primarily and the other characters in supporting or recurring roles.

So Alex was in studio recording! Obviously that isn't her first box set or Doom Coalition 2, so what do we think it will be? Volume 2 of her Diary seems the most likely....does anyone know where a certain Mr Tennant was earlier in the week??
