British Soap Awards 2022 winners: Full results as Emmerdale scoops best soap
Emmerdale was tied with EastEnders with four awards in total.
ITV's Emmerdale has been crowned best soap at the British Soap Awards 2022 – as the ceremony returned last night after three years off our screens.
The ITV series picked up four awards in total on the night, also including Best Leading Performer for Paige Sandhu, Best Performance for Mark Charnock, and Best Family for The Dingles.
That placed the soap level with EastEnders, which also emerged victorious in four categories including Best Comedy Performer for Tameka Empson and Best Newcomer for Ross Boatman.
Elsewhere Coronation Street won three awards, Hollyoaks was successful in two categories, and Doctors went home with a single award.
Meanwhile, long-time EastEnders star Letitia Dean won the Outstanding Achievement Award thanks to her almost forty-year run playing Sharon Watts – and was presented with her prize by Anita Dobson, who played her mum Angie on the soap.
