Coronation Street named BEST SOAP (at TV awards) - and MORE!
Coronation Street beat EastEnders and Emmerdale to win best soap at the TV Quick and TV Choice Awards.
But Emmerdale, so often overshadowed by its two big rivals, also celebrated a double victory. Also Emma Atkins, who plays Charity Tate, was crowned best soap actress, beating Coronation Street's Kate Ford (Tracy Barlow) and June Brown (Dot Branning) from EastEnders. Charity's ruined wedding day won the title of best soap storyline, ahead of Maya's revenge in Coronation Street and the Sharon, Dennis and Zoe love triangle in EastEnders. Shane Richie won best soap actor for playing Alfie Moon in EastEnders. Lacey Turner, who plays Albert Square bad girl Stacey Slater, was named best soap newcomer. The awards, held at the Dorchester Hotel on London's Park Lane, were voted by readers of TV Quick and TV Choice. Source: MSN Well done Corrie! |

The credibility and integrity of these awards is evident anyways by Shane Richie winning best actor

Emmerdale has been better but it's always overlooked for that category.
I love all the comedy in Corrie that people have been complaining about I think it's worked well with a quiet patch and kept the episodes enjoyable but it's not been top quality soap like Emmerdale has. |

Corrie and EastEnders only seem to matter at awards Safra. Look at the soap awards, Emmerdale only got one gong and it deserved atleast another two or three gongs.
So I don't even think that poor Emmerdale gets much of a look in. |

Does anyone really care about these two-bit magazine soap awards? There are so many of them these days that they're rapidly becoming totally meaningless.

To my mind the most prestigious award ever to be won by a soap was The South Bank Show award for Best Drama which went to Corrie this year. I bet the people at Corrie were delighted about that. I don't think a soap has ever even been nominated before.
