Heyhey everyone

So it's results time! The votes are in and have been counted. Thanks to everyone who voted in the thread and by PM'ing. There were over 50 votes altogether.

So I'll start by announcing the winner (or should I say loser?) of the award for the worst "dramatic moment".

The shortlisted nominees were.....
Charlie and Shelley's wedding (Corrie)
Ashley losing his sight (Corrie)
Den and Zoe in bed (EE)
and
Nana Moon's death

And the dramatic moment that failed to have us on the edge of our seats in 2005 was.......

The fourth award is for the worst storyline. The winner was very much a runaway victory here!!

The nominees were...
Scooter and the carp (Corrie)
Charlie and Shelley (Corrie)
Keith’s pigs (Corrie)
and
Eastend Booze Cruise (EE)

Well even though I personally thought this was a very bad story, I was surprised at the extent it won by, gathering over 3 times as many votes as the 2nd placed nominee!

Its....
Spoiler


So, next up is the award for the worst decision in soap of 2005. Unlike this award, it was very close!

The nominees were....
Splitting up Violet & Jason and putting him together with Sarah (Corrie)
Killing Dennis (EE)
Axing Family Affairs (Family Affairs)
The making of "Let Loose" (Hollyoaks)

Any guesses?

Narrowly beating the 2nd place, you've decided that the worst decision that was made this year was

Spoiler


I've got to go take down the Christmas tree right now but I'll be back later to announce, among others, the worst newcomer, the worst actress and the worst double act.

What does everyone think of the results so far?

Hi everyone!

Back for a while, so here is the result of "worst newcomer"

Out of these nominees...
Eric Potts (Diggory, Corrie)
Emma Barton (Honey, EE)
Petra Letang (Naomi, EE)
Andrew Hinton-Brown (Hector, Family Affairs)

It was too close to call between two of the nominees:
Diggory and Naomi

But eventually, you decided that the winner is.....

So, now for the least funny "comedy moment"

The nominees for these were...
Les and Cilla’s wedding (Corrie)
Sean and the vet (Corrie)
Dot’s driving test (EE)
Eastenders in France (EE)

There seemed to be a clear cut winner in this catagory, but towards the end of the voting, another nominee came up close behind. The eventual comedy moment that your sides were definately not splitting watching is....

Spoiler


Next up, it's the award for the worst character in soap.

It was between Diggory from Corrie, and Honey, Juley and Naomi, all from Eastenders.

Who do you think is the winner?

Well despite there being a strong Eastenders presence, Diggory makes it a double by winning your award for the worst character in soap!

Anyway, moving on. The next award is for the worst romantic moment.

The nominees were...
Alfie & Little Mo (EE)
Ruby & Juley (EE)
Sonia & Naomi (EE)
Eilleen bonking two policemen (Family affairs)

It was very close between the three Eastenders entries...

Now onto the award for the biggest disappointment of the year. This could have been storylines, axings, new characters, soaps in general, anything. It was left open.

The nominees you came up with were:
Corrie being below average this year (Corrie)
Shelley’s illness (Corrie)
Eastenders in France (EE)
Hollyoaks Let Loose (Hollyoaks)

But you decided on
Spoiler

as the biggest disappointment of 2005

Despite Corrie taking quite a dip this year, not one of you voted for it as worst soap in the first round of voting, and so is not on the shortlist.

The shortlist for the final award; worst soap of 2005 is:
Eastenders
Family Affairs
Hollyoaks

and
Home and Away

Well I don't think it should be hollyoaks as it hasn't had many of your other "bad awards" or whatever.
