The Inside Soap Awards have announced the 2024 nominations shortlist ahead of next week’s ceremony.
Coronation Street, EastEnders, Emmerdale, and Hollyoaks are the four shows nominated in the prestigious Best Soap category,
with EastEnders looking to repeat last year’s victory.
Voting has been taking place since July 15 across a range of categories, with over 80,000 votes cast so far. The top four performers in each category have now made the shortlist.
In addition to the category awards, two other special prizes will be given away on the night – Soap Superstar of 2024 for the actor who has performed “above and beyond the call of duty,” as well as the Outstanding Achievement Award to a creative team for its long-standing contributions to the art form.
Gary Gillatt, executive editor of Inside Soap magazine, said of this year’s nominees: “Some of 2024’s most challenging and thought-provoking television dominates the storyline and acting categories this year: the bittersweet journey from Paul’s MND diagnosis in Coronation Street; the horror of coercive control in a marriage in Emmerdale and abuse within a family in Hollyoaks. Meanwhile, EastEnders’ tale of the conspiracy of ‘The Six’ has won many fans. But who’ll take home the trophies on the night? All will soon be revealed!”
