Holby City missed out on the gong after being axed

The series aired its last episode aired on March 29 this year after 23 years on screen.

Viewers were gutted by its axing, and a win tonight would have given it a final hurrah.

Sadly it wasn’t to be the case, as Corrie triumphed, with members of the cast and production taking to the stage at London’s Royal Festival Hall.

Viewers watching at home took to Twitter to discuss the result.

Another added: “What they didn’t win again?! Fixed every year”.

A third shared: “congratulations corrie, so deserved.”

The final episode of Holby saw Jac Naylor lost her battle with a brain tumour.

In the emotional last ever episode of the medical drama, Jac was seen signing an Advanced Decision to Refuse Treatment form (an ADRT).

This meant that her devastated colleagues were unable to save her when she suffered a deadly clot on her brain.

Jac was declared brain dead minutes after distraught Sacha had begged his fellow medics to administer life-saving drugs.

Corrie cast members Sally Dynevor and Charlie de Melo were on hand to pick up the gong
