Row Over Soap Awards

A war seems to have broken out between Emmerdale, Coronation Street and EastEnders after a row at Monday night's Inside Soap Awards. Emmerdale stars were said to be "furious" after the soap failed to win any awards.

EastEnders won a "boot-load" of trophies at the star-studded bash including the coveted Best Soap accolade.

Brooke Vincent, who plays Coronation Street's Sophie Webster, told the Daily Star: "It's a complete fix. I can't believe they've won again."

Emmerdale actor Nick Miles said that it was an "insult" that the Yorkshire soap was not even shortlisted for many awards.

He said: "Once again not one Emmerdale Best Actor/ Actress nomination and once again I can't help feeling insulted on behalf of my mates.

"We're never on the cover [of the magazine] and rarely on the shortlist in major categories.

"It's known as the Walford Gazette round here.

"After six years, enough is enough."

Katherine Kelly, who plays Becky McDonald, said: "[EastEnders] may have won loads of awards but all I'll say is look at the viewing figures.

"We're the real winners."

I don`t believe there was a fix like Brooke Vincent said. Its just that more youngsters are passionate about EE and voted as such. I can understand Nick Miles disappointment and I feel his pain. I really love Emmerdale - although my fave soap at the moment it Pobol Y Cym. I love it to bits.
Lacey Turner winning best female was a forgone conclusion. I`m thrilled about 'Grahame' and sweet little 'Simon' and 'Blanche' winning their awards -most deserved.
The Bill as best drama? Come on! Casualty should`ve won it.

Well done to EastEnders and to Corrie too for each getting 5 awards.

How many years has that been running now Wendy, it must be a fair while.

Emmerdale HAVE been on the cover. Just not that often. I don't particularly think Lacey Turner deserves all these awards. There are others who can out-act her by miles. But these people should be having a pop at the bosses for putting the shortlisted names forward in the first place. If they didn't keep having the usual suspects (same with all awards and it's tiresome - put them with non-soap stars in the categories and see how well they do) then it wouldn't be such a foregone conclusion.

Since 1974 sooty. I watched it in 1989 when it was on S4C. I now watch it via a site I visit. I`m so hooked on it, and have been watching it since June of this year.
Denzil reminds me so much of Charlie Slater from EE. They could be brothers they look so similar.

[RitaLittlewood]

May as well post this here. EE got 6.

No real surprises there with EE

Debbie Rush (Anna Windass in Corrie) looks absolutely stunning. I adore that style and colour dress she`s wearing.
