Coronation Street wins big at Inside Soap Awards

'Coronation Street' was the big winner at this year's Inside Soap Awards.

The ITV show scooped the coveted Best Soap accolade at London's Salsa Temple on Monday night (30.09.24), as well as the Best Actor prize for Peter Ash following his character Paul Foreman's emotional Motor Neurone Disease (MND) plot.

As well as the Best Actor trophy, Peter also landed the Best Storyline prize for Paul's MND battle, which resulted in his character losing his life, and he and co-star Daniel Brocklebank (Billy Mayhew) won the Best Partnership prize.

Following their flurry of accolades, a post on the 'Corrie' X account read: "The Inside Soap Awards have treated us well tonight"

Emmerdale's Eden Taylor-Draper also landed a huge prize, winning Best Actress for her part as Belle King.

There was further joy in the Dales as 'Emmerdale' won Best Family for The Dingles, and Best Pet for Minnie Piper.

'EastEnders' won Best Showstopper for their dramatic The Six plot, which saw Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) kill Keanu Taylor (Danny Walters) over the festive period.

It was also a good night for Albert Square's Panesar family.

Balvinder Sopal scooped the Soap Superstar award for her portrayal of Suki Panesar, and her on-screen husband Navin Chowdhry (Nish Panesar) won the Best Villain gong.

BBC daytime soap 'Doctors' is to air for the final time this December after 24 years.

And the show will bow out after landing the Outstanding Achievement accolade at this year's Inside Soap Awards on Monday night.

What's more, former 'Emmerdale' actor Adam Thomas won the Best Drama Star award for his performance as Waterloo Road's Donte Charles.
