The soap star played Mason Radcliffe on the soap before his character was tragically killed off.
The actor's chances of picking up an award tonight was dashed when it was announced that EastEnders' special flashback episode about Phil Mitchell's Psychosis had won.
Those watching at home claimed Luca looked "furious" with the result.
One wrote: "The Mason actor didn't look too happy there."
"Oh no! Luca Toolan looked gutted," a second said.
While some fans said Luca was "robbed".
This person said: "Sorry but that award should have gone to Luca for the knife crime story for Mason."
A second posted: "Corrie robbed, should've won for that Mason storyline."
Another fumed: "Excuse my language but how the F*** did Mason's death not win anything? Diabolical results."
Shocking scenes saw Mason attacked by his brothers and flee - but the thugs chased him down.
And when Dylan tried to intervene - bringing Mason's knife - it was taken from him and used to stab Mason.
He stumbled into the playground and hallucinated a future where he reunited with Betsy and planned for his new life in Germany.
But as the truth was revealed about Dylan's involvement, the reality was shown as Abi Webster found Mason bleeding out.
She screamed for an ambulance and tried to apply pressure to his wounds, desperate to save him.
Mason told her: 'I'm going to die, aren't I? I'm going to die.'
Abi said: 'You're not going to die. Mason, listen to me, an ambulance is on the way and you're not going to die.'
However the ambulance was distracted by a hoax call and delayed in getting to Mason so he was in a bad way by the time it arrived.
Rushed to hospital with a weeping Betsy and Abi with him, the doctors battled to save his life.
But sadly there was nothing they could do and Mason died in the hospital leaving Betsy devastated.
BBC rival EastEnders swept the board after collecting a total of eight gongs in its 40th anniversary year - more than double its nearest rival, Channel 4's Hollyoaks who got three awards.
EastEnders was awarded Best Soap after its huge live episode and anniversary week which saw Anita Dobson return as Angie Watts and Martin Fowler killed off in the arms of his love, Stacey.
It was certainly not the only award that they picked up with actress Lacey Turner receiving the trophy for Best Leading Performer ahead of her impending exit from the show.
The 40th anniversary also managed to clutch the Scene of the Year thanks to Angie's shock return.
Steve McFadden a won a trophy for Best Dramatic Performance as Phil Mitchell but did not attend the ceremony with Angela Wynter and Rudolph Walker also receiving prizes as Patrick and Yolande - beating Corrie fan favourites Lisa Swain and Carla Connor, affectionately known as Swarla, to the Best On-Screen Partnership award.
The Walford based soap also collected the Comedy Performance gongs and Villain of the Year.
In a major blow to Coronation Street, only David Neilson picked up the Outstanding Achievement Award as Roy Cropper which was presented to him by by his on-screen wife Julie Hesmondhalgh.

Molly Mae reveals secret struggle over reunion with Tommy Fury as pair enjoy romantic staycation weekend with baby Bambi
MOLLY Mae has admitted there's certain aspects of reuniting with Tommy Fury that she's struggling to deal with in the spotlight. The Love Island icon and Maebe mogul finally confirmed she was back together with Tommy after a one-year break in May, after hiding their rekindled romance for months. 9 9 With their relationship now out in the open, Molly and Tommy have been enjoying a string of breaks together, enjoying a 'staycation' this weekend in the Cotswolds with their daughter, Bambi. But as the pair took some time away at a 17th century estate complete with a swimming pool, Molly uploaded a new vlog on her YouTube channel talking about life lately. In it, she admits that it's been strange adjusting to life publicly again with Tommy, and found herself struggling during a trip to Disneyland in Paris. 'Disneyland was just like… I don't want to say not enjoyable, because we had a lovely time,' she told the camera, adding: 'Disneyland was just, we went at the wrong time.' Explaining the family took the trip during the half-term holidays, Molly said she was joined by Tommy and Bambi, as well as a group of loved one. However, she found herself unable to enjoy the trip to its fullest after spotting other people at the park filming them and taking photos. While she tried to make light of the situation – saying she made sure she posed or stared at them so they realised later they had been caught out taking sneaky pictures – Molly said it was hard especially with their daughter around. 'At Disneyland, when I was with Bambi, it's quite hard to navigate that,' she said. 'When you have a toddler, you're out with your partner, and there's already a little bit of a new thing that you're back out together, and you're trying to navigate that, and then you can see people looking and staring and filming. 'It was my birthday as well, and it was just like… kind of tricky to figure out if we were having boundaries, or there weren't any boundaries.' Molly Mae and Tommy Fury 'confirm' reunion as they BOTH share snaps from holiday 'I won't be in a rush to go back anywhere as busy and as public and as crazy as that, because we should have known better, really,' she declared. 'I think we feel it more now, because obviously going out together now, it is a bit.. not anxiety inducing, I don't know what the word for it is, it's just a bit like new territory. 'Because for people it's a bit like taboo, I don't know, but if people see us out, it's like 'oh, like let's film!' 'I don't know – I just think I maybe felt it a bit more this time,' she noted. 9 9 9 After posting the vlog, Molly and Tommy whisked themselves away to a romantic "staycation" for the weekend. Holing up in the Cotswolds, Molly looked happy as she cuddled up next to Tommy during some downtime. Returning from a trip to St Tropez for work, Molly decided she needed some family time – with Bambi quickly taking to the hotel pool. Sharing one adorable snap, Molly said of her little one: "Telling this girl she can't go swimming when she sees a pool is like trying to put toothpaste back in the tube. Never going to happen!" However she noted it wasn't as glam as it looked, with Molly noting "It was freezing". 9 9 9

White Lotus star Theo James joins forces with Stephen Fry for grotesque new film
Theo James and Stephen Fry have teamed up for a grotesque new film that's worlds away from their respective work. TV hunk Theo, 40, has swapped his roles in the The White Lotus and The Gentleman as he portrays an unassuming diner at a smart restaurant. As the film opens, he orders a seemingly sustainable fish course, with Stephen Fry playing a head waiter who delivers his dish. Theo then probes: 'The menu says the fish was caught sustainably, is that correct?' Jeopardy! host Stephen, 67, replies: 'Oh, absolutely, of course,' before following up: 'Presumably sir would like the extras...

TV hunk Theo, 40, has swapped his roles in the The White Lotus and The Gentleman as he portrays an unassuming diner at a smart restaurant as Stephen, 67, plays a waiter 'Bottom trawling sir, you know, not what I spent sometime in the eighties doing, I'm talking about how fish is caught in most British marine reserves. 'The fish is caught with an enormous about of bycatch, up to 80% of what is caught is discarded or destroyed but surely sir was aware of that?' In grotesque scenes, the catch then crashes down on top of Theo and the table, covering him in the remains. 'It's in my mouth', he screams, before pleading: 'Stop, please!' The attention-grabbing film, called The Bottom Line, was made by Blue Marine Foundation, a charity aimed at restoring the ocean and tackling overfishing. Speaking about taking part in the campaign, Stephen said: 'This shockingly destructive practice continues even in the UK's protected areas. 'I witnessed the waste firsthand and was absolutely appalled. It is morally corrupt to allow what should be thriving ecological wildernesses to be reduced to shells of destruction. 'Bottom trawling in marine protected areas must be banned now.' Theo added: 'As a keen diver I've long been captivated by the ocean and been horrified by the impact humans are having on it. 'Having had a load of bycatch dumped on me, it really drove home just how grotesque and devastating the practice of bottom trawling is. 'It was deeply unsettling but I was glad to do it if it helps drive real change.' The 90-second clip was directed by twice-BAFTA nominated director Ben Mallaby, who is known for his work on Borderlands and Island Queen.
