Coronation Street has won only one award in the All About Soap Awards, results of which have been announced today.
And the award Corrie won? It went to Michelle Keegan for being the Best Dressed Soap Star. Oh dear. Is that really the best Corrie can do or was it lack of Corrie fans voting in the poll? I do wonder.
Emmett J Scanlan won Best Actor for his portrayal of Brendan Brady in Hollyoaks, and EastEnders' Jo Joyner (Tanya Jessop) was named Best Actress.
Hollyoaks won the award for Best Episode (Halloween Murder) and Best Villain (Silas Blissett, played by Jeff Rawle), while Jo Joyner also shared the Best Couple award with EastEnders co-star Jake Wood (Max Branning).
The Best Mystery award went to Emmerdale for the Cain Dingle Whodunit, with Michael French winning Best Comeback for his return to EastEnders as David Wicks.

I don't think so. Just look at the results: Hollyoaks has won 3 awards while many of the actors mentioned are youth orientated. And as for older viewers, they don't have access to vote. We all know that Corrie is the best!
ReplyDeleteIs Tina a particularly well dressed character? I would have said Eva was better dresssed. The trouble with Tina is that you cant get past her mardy sour little face, pity as she is a pretty girl.
ReplyDeleteThere are soooooo many soap award events (all given a 'heads up' on soap sites like this) that it's impossible for the average person to vote in so many. It would become a tiresome 'day job' if you made the time to vote in all of them.
ReplyDeleteOne big event is enough. The rest as far as I'm concerned can be adjudicated by a panel of paid judges/TV critics.
- Big one for the public to cast a vote.
- All the others; let a panel of judges decide.
Life's too short...
