Damian Lewis

I have liked Damian since He played Benedick in the BBC Shakespeare re-told version on Much ado about Nothing. Since then I have seen him in a lot of stuff.
He played Charlie Crews in Life. Unfortunately that got cancelled after the 2nd season. He played Soames Forsyte in the Forsyte Saga. And Major Winters in Band of Brothers.

I guess he is more recently known for playing Sgt. Nick Brody in the Award winning show Homelend.

He has also played football for England in many Celebrity Charity games.

Unfortunately I do not know when I wrote to Damian. I lost a lot of data on my hard drive. So I can't say how long it took. I don't have the address I wrote to him with either :(

Russell Tovey

WOW! that was a long wait!

I can't remember where I first saw Russell. He has been in History boys, Gavin & Stacey, Doctor Who, Him & Her and Being Human.
I love Russell as George in Being Human. I wrote the letter to him when I first heard he was leaving the show. It's one of the greatest UK shows to be made in recent years I am sad that it has now ended :(
I wrote to Russel on 15th November 2011 and received this reply on November 1st 2012. That's almost a year LOL! I am happy to have a result though, However long I have to wait.

David Tennant

This is the second time Ive written to David. The reason was because The last time I wrote to him it was as Doctor Who and I really wanted to write to him and tell him how amazing he was as Benedick in Much Ado...

I wrote to David in May and recieved a reply this week so I am very happy with a 4 month wait - It was worth it!

Ed Westwick

This is what I'm calling a Half Success!

If you didn't already know, Ed plays Chuck Bass in CWs Gossip Girl. Although I am not a fan of the character, I do love Ed as an actor.
He has also been in Chalet Girl, Son of Rambow, S.Darko, Children of Men, J Edgar, 100 Feet and has just finished playing Tybalt in the new movie adaptation of Romeo and Juliet.
I wrote to Ed back in May to his London agent as I knew he was in the country then but unfortunately it didn't get to him in time. So his agent sent back my letter and the photos I sent and sent me this pre-signed photo.
No worries though I will just send it on to him c/o the Gossip Girl address as many people seem to get results from that.

GUTTED!

The most exciting thing for an Autograph collector is picking up the post and finding one of their own SAEs. This is because you know its another success! and you can't wait to open it to see who replied. For me it is especially exciting when the stamps are from the US.
So imagine how excited I was last night to get home and find this...

...Only to open it up and find it completely empty!! NOoooooo!!!
Im gutted as I have no idea who it was from. I guess it was either Penn Badgley or Leighton Meester as I wrote to both of them about a month ago.
I am hoping that who ever it was will realise they forgot to put my photos in the envelope and send them on to me but not really must chance of that :(
I may have to write to them both again now but I am going to look like a stalker soon...
