Please note that PCR subscribers are all professional members of the industry and we are therefore unable to run breakdowns for extras or amateur performers.  The majority of agents also subscribe to PCR (so you may receive multiple submissions from an agent), however we do not give permission for online 'casting services' to use our information as we have had a number of complaints about them forwarding large piles of unsuitable candidates.

Please ring the Editorial Office on (44) 020 7566 8282 if you have any questions.
