I would start with "Dear Mr. Tennant," and then go from there.

Seriously, though, just clear your head and stop thinking. That's what I do. I'm good at not thinking. I use the "standard" three-paragraph, one-page-handwritten format. The first paragraph is where you introduce yourself, the second is where you write about Mr. Tennant, and the third is where you request an autograph. Pretty simple, really. I'm sure they've heard it all before, so I don't try to write the perfect letter. It gets easier with practice.

Just write from the heart, we can't tell you how to write a letter (it's supposed to be from you, not us!) Just say a bit about who you are, why you're writing (i.e. why you like the person, your favourite episodes/shows etc that kind of stuff) and then request an autograph. Simples {up}

Well I started the letter about how I thought he was good in Doctor and was sad to see him leave etc (i didn't right etc) And then what other roles I like him in, and then asked him for this autograph and added a drawing to the bottom see link underneath...

I have basically written 3 paragraphs, but haven't wirtten about myself, would be there all day, and didn't really want to waffle on too much, which I am said to do....

Have written it now though so will be posting it this week, am so hoping to get a reply. would be awsome. :D

Thankd for the replys, Hollie :D

That should be fine :) If you make sure to include an SASE you should get your reply eventually :)
