There was also a win for Coronation Street's Katherine Kelly, who picked up the award for serial drama performance for her role as Becky McDonald.

There were awards for Celebrity Juice, which picked up the comedy panel show prize, Alan Carr, who carried off the talk show award, and Ant and Dec. The Geordie pair have won the entertainment presenter award every year since 2002.
