Woohoo!
Coronation Street has beaten its soap rivals to win the Serial Drama Award at the National Television Awards 2012.
The awards were held on Wednesday 25 January 2012 and beamed live to ITV1 from the 02 arena in London.
Last year, Corrie lost out on the National Television Award for Best Serial Drama to BBC1 soap EastEnders. This year
was clearly Corrie's turn to win.
Producer Phil Collinson collected the award and handed it to Sally Dynevor (Sally Webster) who looked fantastic in a blue frock. She thanked everyone in the cast, the writers, crew who work behind the scenes. Holding the award aloft, Sally said: "And this one is for Betty Driver!"
Phil Collinson dedicated the award to Corrie creator Tony Warren. A nice touch.
Katherine Kelly also won the award for Best Serial Drama Performance for her role as Becky McDonald. Read more on that here.

Well done, Corrie!
