    The address is

    Eastenders
    BBC Elstree Centre
    Clarendon Road
    Herts
    WD6 1JF

    I noticed the BBC's website has missed out the postal town. It should really be

    EastEnders
    BBC Elstree Centre
    Clarendon Road
    BOREHAMWOOD
    WD6 1JF

    But if you just put "EastEnders Elstree" on the envelope and nothing else, it would probably still get there.

    I'm going to write to all the cast who weren't at the meet and greet, plus June Brown whose card was unsigned and Jonny Labey whose cards were not there.

    Do the helpdesk send blank cards from former cast members as well?

    Has anyone ever had Corrie replies from Qasim Akhtar (Zeedan), Shayne Ward (Aidan), Bruno Langley (Todd) or Tristan Gemmill (Robert)?

    Such a shame as I love collecting them! :( I wondered why they had not replied to my request for the latest cards as they are usually very quick. Wonder if they will stop paying postage too?

    It seems like it is a new person running the helpdesk who just doesn't want to do it, hopefully won't effect the normal fan mail

    Hope not, although I have not had any replies for ages! Would be quite happy to pay for the blank cards if they were made available too.

    I received a signed Sair Khan (Alya, Coronation Street) cast card a few weeks back after just under two years.

    Hopefully I'll get Carli Norris in the post any day myself but things have been really barren on the autograph front these past three or four months.

    Oh no! Well, I already wrote to them so I'll see what happens. Someone on Twitter did write to them shortly before the meet and greet and got all the cards sent back and that was only last month.

    I sent off letters last Tuesday to all the current EE cast members who weren't at the meet and greet, and Roger Sloman has already replied!

    Reply from the Corrie helpdesk or the actors/actresses individually?

    I had a question about the updated Corrie cast cards. Is there a difference between the ones they give the actor and the ones they send to the Press Office?

    I've noticed that sometimes when you find out that a particular actor has a new cast card and you only receive cast cards from the PO that they may not have it available there. For example, I know that Patti Clare and Malcolm Hebden both have had new cast cards for a couple of years, but when I send out for them from the PO, I still get the older versions. If you look on EBay, you will always see autographed versions of the new Malcolm Hebden card alone, but whenever there is a sale for a group of preprints with Hebden included, it's usually the previous version.

    I'm just curious if there's a difference and the Corrie PO doesn't have all the updates right now. It's interesting as I can get all the new cast cards, but getting updated ones is a bit harder.

    Well after hearing that eastenders no longer send eastenders cast cards,i thought i would write myself to the eastenders help desk and ask and they confirmed that its true that they no longer send blank eastenders cast cards.

    'Sorry but we cannot send out any photos of the cast anymore,to obtain either signed or unsigned you have to write a individual letter to east cast member you want'.

    What if the cast members doesnt reply through the post and only way to get there autograph is in person?,its so frustrating!.

    Anyways some good news coronation street are still sending corrie cast cards,i recieved the new simon gregson cast card as well as liam bairstow and ben price as well as some others 😃

    Thanks very much for doing this.Going to try and get some blank ones by writing to cast members, but it is frustrating as you say!
