Michelle Keegan wins All About Soap Award

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.
