Inside Soap Awards 2023: Winners list in full as EastEnders enjoy another dominant night weeks after NTAs

Weeks after the National Television Awards, the Inside Soap Awards were recently held, with EastEnders enjoying another dominant evening, scooping some coveted awards. The fan-voted awards show sees viewers having their say.

It’s been an explosive year for the popular BBC One soap, with the return of Albert Square icon Cindy Beale, played by Michelle Collins, who was one of the most legendary soap characters ever returning after 25 years.

With many other iconic moments this year, it is no surprise that the soap won best overall this year. It’s the second time in a row soap fans have given the team the prize, as EastEnders continues to rise higher and higher.

Despite all of the great moments this year, it’s also been an emotional one as Lola Pearce-Brown (Danielle Harold) lost her life following a long battle with a brain tumour, leaving her long-term partner, Jay, heartbroken.
