Contact Details
From time to time, we receive enquiries from fans as to how they can write to Nicola. We always suggest that you do this via her agents, whose address is listed in our FAQ page. However, we accept that the FAQ page may not be the most logical place to find this information, so here it is again :

Many of you may want to write and let Nicola know how much you have enjoyed her work over the years. We have it on good authority that Nicola collects her fan mail from her agents quite regularly and enjoys reading fan letters. However, you should not expect that she will have time to send a personal response to each and every letter, it depends on how busy she is at any time. No offence to any one who has written or is considering writing to Nicola, but we’d rather she spend time filming new projects, reading scripts and/or taking meetings/going to auditions in relation to new and interesting work than writing responses to fans. 🙂
SASE
If you would like an autographed photo in return, you will need to enclose a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope (“SASE”). For those fans who live outside the UK, this may present a bit of a problem since you may not be able to purchase UK stamps where you live, but in this internet age, that is no longer a problem.
Go to the UK’s Royal Mail website where you can :
- work out how much it will cost to have the SASE sent back to you from the UK with just one photo, which measures 4″ x 6″, (shouldn’t weigh more than 30 grams) on this page
- buy the necessary UK stamps and have these sent to you – there is a variety of stamp books you can buy on this page
After you receive the UK stamps from Royal Mail via regular post, you can then use the UK stamps on your SASE and then send it, together with your letter to Nicola, care of her agents. Make sure that your package has the correct postage as required by the Post Office from your location. Unless you live in the UK, you will not be able to use the online postage option since once purchased, these stamps (which you can print out on your computer) only have a 24 hour validity period.
The Royal Mail online shop also has a variety of other interesting items for you to purchase, in addition to stamps. So its well worth exploring. However, you will need to give your credit card details online as the Royal Mail does not accept PayPal.
Photos
As far as we know, Nicola has done two “head shots” for work purposes. Signed copies of these head shots are often sent to fans on request, as long as any such request is accompanied with a SASE with correct postage. Here on the right is the older version, which sometimes sells for less than £1 on eBay (but you will then have to add on shipping and handling fees charged by the eBay vendor). As from November 2010, we noticed that Nicola has started to use this newer head shot (on the left), which was available on her actor’s page on the National Theatre website. We have noticed, with some interest, that recent sales on eBay of this newer version of Nicola’s head shot have gone for more than £20! There must be some very keen fans out there who have made one or two professional autograph sellers very happy. But for those of us who cannot afford these prices, writing directly to Nicola via her agent would be the most economical way to go, if you’re after a signed photo.
If you wish to send a small gift to Nicola via her agents, please make sure that you include enough postage for her agents to forward the package to Nicola.
Good luck!
Hello Ms. Walker, I can’t tell you how much my husband and I enjoyed River. It’s a funny expression in English to say “I can’t tell you” when I am doing just that! I am married to a man of Swedish descent and I come from an Irish heritage and there were many parallels in your character and River’s to my husband’s and mine. Not in a literal way, but certain idiosyncrasies.
Thank you and the rest of the cast and crew, and, of course, the writer for bringing a great story to life. You and your colleagues were brilliant.
Thank you for your caring enough to be a part of such a brilliant series.
Thank you for your comment. It really should be more appropriately posted under the River page. As for the rest of your comments, you should send them to Nicola using her Agent’s address given on this page.
I can’t wait for the Christmas special of LTIH to air in America. I just watched my DVD’s of season 1-3. Nicola’s role as Gillian is magnificent! She was great in “A View From The Bridge”.
whenever I see Nicola’s name in the credits I know that I will enjoy the film! You are a great actress.
If Nicola is in anything you just know its going to be golden.Best actress out there.
Just great in everything you do Nicola, keep it up & good luck x
Absolutely brilliant actress Nicola! I watch and love everything you appear in. Keep up the great work!
I remember watching this Lady in the the soaps in her early days and even then you could see she was destined for great things. She is an unbelievable actress, without doubt the best actress in the UK at the moment and has been for several years,
If you look through her CV, you will see that Nicola never did any “soaps”. Perhaps you are thinking of someone else?
Ms. Walker, I saw your performance as Helen Bartlett in Scott & Bailey. You were absolutely brilliant. I wish I could see more of your work here in the U.S. Love you in Last Tango in Halifax. Would love to see you in Dr. Who. I wish you all the best luck.
I am a fan of “Last Tango” from Oklahoma. The show rocks and Nicola rocks–she is doing a splendid job with that role. She’s the best!
