After sending out my first batch of Coronation Street requests, today I received my first reply from Lisa George, who plays Beth Tinker in the show. I sent a LOR (in a larger envelope with several others) and an SAE to the Coronation Street studio address and received a personally signed cast card just over a week later!

Congratulations! I have a question though - when you send multiple requests in the one envelope, do you provide any return postage or do you just address your envelope? I'm asking because I noticed ITV provided return postage, but I wasn't sure if they always do this?
I'm asking as I'd like to send a bundle request like you did to save stamps/money

Hello! Ok so I send multiple requests using one envelope: for each request, I sent a letter and a self addressed envelope, then put both into another envelope addressed to the actor. Then I put about 10 of those envelopes into a larger A4 sized envelope and send it to the Coronation Street address I hope that makes sense, I do the same for Eastenders and Holby City as the BBC also provide postage!

Ok thank you So you still stamp your return envelopes per each request inside the main big envelope? As ITV paid the postage in the picture you've uploaded, right?

No I don't stamp my return envelopes, I just send a SAE (self-addressed envelope).

Ahh ok cool, thank you very much!
Hi Shana I was just wondering whether you have had any Corrie replies yet? If you haven't already I definitely recommend sending to Julia Goulding (Shona) as she literally took a day to reply!

Hi, I had 2 replies recently from my Bundle! The first was Beverley Callard and I'm so excited with that one as Liz is my favourite, and the other was Jane Danson! I have written to julia in my bundle request so hopefully she comes back - a day is amazing!!

Lucky, I haven't had Jane Danson yet! Peter Gunn (Brian) is another good one to send to - I didn't even realise he had a cast card and only decided to send to him as I had 1 envelope left I've just seen on Twitter than Nicola Thorp (Nicola) has just got a cast card too, thought this may be of interest to you (I sent to her today!)
