The five biggest soaps programmes - Coronation Street, Doctors, EastEnders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks – will be hoping to win big at the event hosted by Phillip Schofield. Plenty of well-known faces from across the TV and showbiz world will go along to present 16 awards voted for either by the public or a panel of expert judges.
After twelve months of murder, mystery, make ups, break ups, trials, tribulations, tears and heartache, viewers can still vote for their favourites in the following categories – Best Actor, Best Actress, Villain of the Year, Sexiest Female, Sexiest Male and Best British Soap at www.britishsoapawards.tv.
