The British Soap Awards returned live to ITV for the first time in two years after the 2020 and 2021 ceremonies were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
ITV replaced it with a special 60-minute program entitled “The British Soap Awards Celebrations 21 Years”, which was broadcast by ITV. Phillip Schofield, the long-running host, presented the show.
Phillip (60), host of the soap, was greeted by a multitude of soap actors to London’s Hackney empire, where they fought it out for prizes in 14 categories.
They were either selected by experts judges, or the public. The award winners could be voted for in three categories: Best British Soap; Best Leading Performer; and Best Family.
Meanwhile, it was reported earlier this year that The British Soap Awards opted to axe the male and female categories.
The new Best Leading Performance award was created instead of Best Actor/Actress. Stars from British soaps are vying for this prize.
The Brits have scrapped gender categorizations in this year’s music, and Adele won Artist of The Year over Ed Sheeran.
The past winners of this award were Lucy Pargeter, who plays Chas Dingle on Emmerdale, Lucy Fallon, who plays Bethany Platt on Coronation Street and Charlotte Bellamy, which plays Laurel Thomas (Emmerdale).
The award for the most sexiest male and female, as voted by the general public, was eliminated in 2015.
Happy: She is about to have her second child. The actress looked happy as she smiled at the event
Over the last year, five of the most popular soaps — Coronation Street (EastEnders), Emmerdale, Emmerdale, Hollyoaks and Doctors) fought for recognition.
After a year filled with drama, it was clear that the competition was fierce.
Emmerdale won the prize for Best Soap, and serial killer Meena Jitla’s terror-inducing stories led to Emmerdale winning.
This soap, which is based in Leeds, also won the Dramatic Performance and Leading Performer prizes for Paige Sandhu and Mark Charnock (Marlon Dingle).
After Andy Devine’s death, the Dingles won Best Family. A special tribute was paid to Shadrach Dingle by The Dingles.
EastEnders was also awarded four awards, Letitia Dean of soap fame being the proud recipient this year’s Outstanding Achievement for almost 40 years as Sharon Watts.
Parents: Julia Silver and Ben Silver welcomed Franklin Wolf Silver in 2019, their first child. (Julia & Ben were pictured in 2017).
Gillian Wright (EastEnders) and Lacey Turner, Jean and Stacey Slater’s EastEnders star(s), fought stiff competition to be the best on-screen couple.
The Comedy Performer prize was won by Tameka Emson (aka Kim Fox), while Ross Boatman received the Newcomer award in recognition of his portrayal as Harvey Monroe.
Coronation Street ended up with three prizes on the night, with their gongs including Best Villain for Maximus Evans (Corey Brent) and Young Performer for Millie Gibson (Kelly Neelan) – both of whom were involved in the soap’s harrowing hate crime storyline.
The Tony Warren Award, which was presented to Jan McVerry (Coronation Street scriptwriter) for her tireless service, was also awarded for ITV’s soap.
Hollyoaks kicked off the win celebrations with Misbah Maalik’s historical rape winning the Best Storyline award – the first of the evening.
Harvey won twice as Harvey also won Scene of the Year for Misbah Didn’t Consent Episode.
He’s back! Phillip Schofield (60), host of The Soap Stars, has returned to London’s Hackney Empire to compete for prizes in fourteen categories.
Doctors won a prize, surprising many with their victory over stiff competition for the single episode of Three Consultations and Funeral.
Neighbours viewers were left “absolutely broke” and in tears when the British Soap Awards paid respect to the show’s cancellation.
There was no dry eye thanks to In Memoriam, which honored soap legends who have died. This included EastEnders icons Barbara Windsor and June Brown. Both received enormous cheers from their audience.
