Coronation Street actress Michelle Keegan has revealed that she intends to use her 'Sexiest Female' award as a burglar deterrent.

The 22-year-old - who plays Tina McIntyre in the ITV soap - picked up the 'Sexiest' trophy for the second year running at this year's British Soap Awards earlier this month, fending off competition from co-star Kym Marsh and EastEnders actresses Preeya Kalidas and Samantha Janus.

Of her win, she said: "I love this award. I'll keep it in my bedroom and the best think it's really big and heavy and it'll definitely double as a burglar deterrent."

She continued: "I didn't think I'd win so I had nothing prepared but it's a huge compliment. I don't feel that sexy when I look at myself in the mirror first thing in the morning and after the Soap Awards party!"
