Coronation Street Leads Inside Soap Awards

The Inside Soap Awards 2025 were held at One Ninetyfour in London, with stars turning out on the red carpet. Coronation Street was crowned Best Soap for the second year running and led the night with five trophies, including Best Actress (Vicky Myers), Best Partnership (Vicky Myers and Alison King), Best Comic Performance (Jack P Shepherd) and Best Storyline (Mason Radcliffe’s death and Abi Franklin’s PTSD). EastEnders also won multiple awards, including Best Actor (Steve McFadden), Best Newcomer (Laura Doddington), Best Villain (Navin Chowdhry), Best Exit (James Bye) and Soap Superstar (Heather Peace). Emmerdale picked up three prizes, notably Best Family for the Dingles (their fifth win), Best Showstopper for a limo-crash stunt and Best Young Performer (Amelia Flanagan). More than 90,000 viewer votes were cast, and Inside Soap editor Sarah Ellis said the poll produced the closest Best Soap results the survey has ever seen.
