Ronnie and Danielle
The Walford serial picked up the honours at the annual event held at London's Dorchester Hotel yesterday evening, while also triumphing in the best soap newcomer and best soap storyline categories.
Former EastEnders actress Lauren Crace, who played fan favourite Danielle Jones for seven months before being killed off, walked away with the newcomer trophy, despite having made her last appearance in April.
Meanwhile, Danielle's story - which saw the character attempt to reconnect with her birth mother Ronnie Mitchell (Samantha Womack) before being tragically mown down just moments after Ronnie accepted her as her daughter - was named best storyline.
Coronation Street's Simon Gregson and Katherine Kelly - who play Weatherfield newlyweds Steve and Becky McDonald - scored two prizes for the Manchester soap, being named this year's best actor and actress.
ITV rural soap Emmerdale and Channel 4 teen soap Hollyoaks left empty handed.
Other winners at the ceremony included Ant and Dec, Waterloo Road's Denise Welsh and Ashes to Ashes star Philip Glenister.
