Inside British Soap Awards afterparty - bleary-eyed stars smoking and bomb scare
A whole host of soap stars let their hair down at the British Soap Awards in London last night before a reported bomb scare ground the show's afterparty to a halt Stars of the nation's favourite soaps were papped looking bleary-eyed as they left the British Soap Awards in London last night. The glitzy event, which was held at Hackney Town Hall, celebrated the creative cast from a whole host of shows, including EastEnders, Coronation Street and Emmerdale. After the ceremony in which EastEnders waltzed away with an impressive eight gongs, beating Emmerdale, Corrie and Hollyoaks to take home Best British Soap, a slew of excitable stars let their hair down at the afterparty. Jaime Winstone, Patsy Palmer and Tina O'Brien were among those snapped at the bash, which went on until the early hours. Award-winning actor Ray Winstone's daughter, Jaime, was seen puffing on a cigarette, sporting a thigh-high white a gold dress as she left the venue with Bianca Jackson star, Patsy Palmer. Patsy looked stunning in a blue silk blazer and matching trousers, which set off her red hair a treat as she grinned after watching EastEnders clean up at the awards. Also representing EastEnders was Jack Branning star, Scott Maslen. He was also seen puffing on a cigarette, wearing a tux and holding a bottle of beer, as he celebrated the success of Albert Square. The actor was joined at the knees-up by fellow Walford wonders, Anita Dobson, who played the iconic Angie Watts, and Ian Beale star Adam Woodyatt. Meanwhile, representing Coronation Street, actress Tina O'Brien was seen making an exit from the after party in the early hours. She looked stunning in a floor-length nude coloured dress with gold sequins, clutching a baby pink bag as she made her way to her hotel in the capital. Also at the bash on behalf of Corrie, was actor Jack P Shepherd and Mollie Gallagher, who looked quite content chomping on a burger in the street, wearing a gorgeous powder blue dress with tuille detail and a cute black hair bow. Despite letting their hair down at the glamourous bash, the night allegedly ended abruptly for the soap stars after they were suddenly asked to leave the venue shortly before 1am after the event had reportedly received a bomb threat. Speaking to the Mirror, our source said: "We all got evacuated just before 1am. No reason was given at first and security came round and told us we had to leave immediately. "As we all waited in the street outside, security told us there had been a bomb threat. We weren't allowed back in the building so people started making their way home." In a video shared with us, some of TV's biggest soap stars can be seen waiting outside the venue as more evacuate - with the likes of ' and former star Emmett J Scanlan among them. A show source also told The Mirror: "Owing to a security alert after the recording of the awards, it was necessary to evacuate the after party venue. Everyone was cleared from the building safely." The Metropolitan Police also told us: "At 00:49hrs on Sunday, 1 June, police were called to Hackney Town Centre after a threat was made to the premises. The call was determined to be a hoax and nothing suspicious was located." The Mirror has contacted ITV. Despite the reported drama after the ceremony, the awards were a real celebration of the best the soap world has to offer. EastEnders was honoured with a total of eight awards- including Best Dramatic Performance for Steve McFadden and Best Single Episode for Phil Mitchell's psychosis. Meanwhile, Hollyoaks won three gongs, Emmerdale took home two and Coronation Street left with one - the Outstanding Achievement Award to David Neilson, who has played Roy Cropper for 30 years.

Tina O'Brien and Jorgie Porter suffer awkward blunder on British Soap Awards red carpet
Coronation Street's Tina O'Brien and Hollyoaks Jorgie Porter have suffered an awkward outfit clash at the annual soap awards event. Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien and Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter suffered an uncomfortable blunder at the British Soap Awards. The actresses joined their co-stars on the red carpet for the annual event, which is taking place tonight. The world of soap's most famous faces have come together to honour the stars who've found themselves at the centre of some of the biggest storylines of the past year. The 2025 categories include Best on-screen Partnership, Best Newcomer, Best Storyline, Best Young Performer, Scene of the Year, Outstanding Achievement Award and the Tony Warren Award. However, Tina and Jorgie suffered an extremely awkward moment when they both rocked up on the red carpet wearing the exact same gown. Jorgie, 37, looked gorgeous as she stepped out in a sheer gold dress. The actress posed for snaps in the gown, which showed off her toned physique and left very little to imagination. She completed her look with minimal jewellery, including a silver diamonté bracelet and a silver watch, the Mirror reports. Her signature blonde hair was slicked back in a tight bun style, completing her classy look. Meanwhile, 41-year-old Tina, who is best known for playing Sarah Platt in Coronation Street, looked equally as beautiful at the star-studded event where she was snapped alongside her daughter, Scarlett Thomas. Similarly to Jorgie, Tina kept her accessories to a minimum, wearing only a small pair of earrings. However, she did go for a very different hairstyle, with her long blonde locks styled into voluminous waves which cascaded freely down her shoulders and rested on her chest. The two soap stars appeared on the red carpet just ten minutes apart, which thankfully prevented an awkward run in had they arrived at the same time in the same outfit. Coronation Street and Hollyoaks are set to go head-to-head in the Best British Soap category, while Tina's on-screen family, The Platts, are nominated for Best Family. They will be competing against the likes of EastEnders' The Slaters, The Dingles from Emmerdale and The Osbornes from Hollyoaks. Taking to social media to comment on the awkward situation, one fan remarked: "Not Tina O'Brien and Jorgie Porter wearing the same dress." However, while fans eagerly wait in anticipation to find out who will be crowned the winners, many have been left disappointed that the event isn't airing live on TV. The awards ceremony is airing on Thursday night instead to make way for the Britain's Got Talent finale on ITV tonight on Saturday May 31. Taking to X to complain about the delay in broadcast, one fan fumed: "It's ridiculous that the British Soap Awards isn't live… there's more hype for the soap stars arriving outside for something not even airing on tv for another week than there is the Britain's Got Talent final… sort it out for next year please @itv." A second echoed: "Soap Awards getting spoiled because ITV thinks people would rather watch BGT instead." A third angry fan chimed in: "The soap awards not being aired live is such a let down, who at ITV thought that was a good idea? There isn't any point watching it now... #BritishSoapAwards."
