Inside Soap Awards 2025 – The winners in full

Coronation Street was the big winner at last night’s Inside Soap Awards, claiming victories in key categories including Best Soap.

Vicky Myers – aka policewoman Lisa Swain – was named Best Actress, while the death of Mason Radcliffe (Luca Toolan) picked up Best Storyline.

Steve McFadden was declared Best Actor for his acclaimed portrayal of Phil Mitchell’s battle of depression in EastEnders, with co-stars Laura Doddington (Nicola Mitchell) and Navin Chowdhry (Nish Panesar) taking Best Newcomer and Best Villain respectively.

Emmerdale was also represented with three wins, but it was a disappointing night for Hollyoaks as the Channel 4 soap walked away empty-handed.
