Coronation Street had a winning night at the British Soap Awards at the weekend, sweeping the board with six awards at a ceremony at The Lowry theatre in Salford – just across the Manchester Ship Canal from the soap’s set.
The Manchester-set soap was the biggest winner on the night, scooping six awards, while it was a solid night for Northern soaps on the whole, with a further two awards for fellow Hollyoaks and one for fellow ITV favourite Emmerdale.
Northern shows did miss out on the night’s biggest award, with the BBC’s cockney miseryfest Eastenders taking the coveted prize for soap of the year.
The awards in full went to:
