Did anyone see Danny Miller's face when Eastenders won storyline for 'Who killed Archie'. He rolled his eyes in disgust and looked mightily peeved even though it was only half way through the show and there was still plenty of opprtunities for him to win something. In my mind that showed a bit of arrogance that he felt he would win everything going. He is bound to have thought that after the year Eastenders had with Archie, Chryed and the live ep, that they might lose out. Plus there was still Best Actor to win. When it was awarded to Scott Maslen, everyone including him looked shocked but Danny looked especially disappointed. Now i know he deserved it as he is a better actor that Scott but he could at least have pretended that he was fine with it. He looked like he expected to win which annoyed me. Coronation Street, Hollyoaks and Doctors looked happy for Eastenders and you could clearly see Katherine Kelly mouthing that Lacey winning was the right choice. It shocked that for once it wasnt Corrie looking peeved they didnt win. Keith Duffy pretended to be upset win Scott won sexiest and Bronough, Lyndon and the girl from Doctors were happy for Marc Elliot to win Best Newcomer. The only time i saw someone else from Emmerdale looking upset was when Ben Richards and Louie Spence mispronounced Lyndon's name.
On ITV2, he showed himself to be a liitle bit magnanimous in defeat but that was probably only because he was on camera or else he accepted he couldnt do anything about it. He seemed to forget the camera was on him on ITV1. Im now glad he didnt win anything as his attitude in defeat stinks.

Amazing scenes between he and Dominic Brunt.
Now I do think he deserved to walk away with something. He's been incredible but I have to say I found his reaction infantile and poor sportsmanship. It's my belief that every actor and actress should show good grace and dignity in the face of defeat. Like you said, Danny was showing signs of annoyance despite there being some more awards to go. It gave the impression that he wanted to win everything.
However I disagree with your Corrie and E'dale comparison. IMO E'dale, bar Danny, came of very well where as the Corrie crowd just looked bitter everytime EE won an award.
Yeh I picked up on that, too many glasses of champagne I think:)
you are aware that was a joke right?
I never actually watched it though so I don't know how bad it was. Does anyone know when/if it's repeated?
The Soap Awards are repeated on Sunday afternoon at 2:25 on Itv2.
Absoultely- I didn't watch the BSAs but I saw his reaction at the NTA and it was very clearly and very obviously a joke reaction- no way was he being serious
Why would he care that CS had beaten EE. Nobody in ED thought they had a chance of winning that award- why would they care which of CS or EE won it
If his reactions at BSAs were anything like the reaction at NTAs- then people are definitley reading way too much into it.
he might have been a little pissed (sorry tired and emotional) at after show interview but he was very quick to praise the other soaps nominated and seemed embarrased when his friend Adam tried to praise him- that to me is more telling- in vino veritas and all
I agree - I think it makes a change to see someone actually look p*ssed off at losing.
After all, let's face it, all of the losers who look pleased for the winner are faking it to some extent, because of course everybody wants to win.
Thanks methodyguy!
I think people have every right to feel disappointed when they are nominated for an award but don't win. I'd say most of the actors last night behaved well and certainly didn't come across as "bitter".
Just a consideration...
EDIT: Bib was ITV2 btw
There are some tragic people here, move on for goodness sake. Of course people are going to be disappointed to not get an award. It's like football fans being annoyed when their team loses, even if it's been fairly one. Did you expect people to be jumping up and down going THANK GOD I LOST THERE!!
I have worrying visions of some people recording this, pausing on reaction shots and writing down on their notepads that such and such rolled their eyes and such and such frowned.
HAHA!! I agree!! A reaction is a reaction, move on.
There was no need for him to roll his eyes.
i didn't see it as arrogance that he thought he should have won, i saw it as "oh eastenders again :rolleyes:"
i'm glad he didn't act like everyone else pretending to be happy, someone has to tell it like it was - a farce!
Yep. Was cringe worthy just watching it.
