Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien posed with her lookalike daughter at the British Soap Awards 2025.

Some of the best-loved stars from Corrie, Emmerdale, EastEnders and Hollyoaks gathered at the Hackney Empire in London on Saturday night (May 31) to celebrate another unforgettable year of

soap.

Jane McDonald, 62, returned to present the awards, which will be broadcast on ITV1 on Thursday (June 5).

Amongst the stars walking the red carpet was Corrie favourite Tina O'Brien, who has played Sarah Platt since 1999.

The 41-year-old actress wore a nude, form-fitting sequinned gown, which she paired with heels, while her signature blonde locks were styled into voluminous curls.

Tina was joined by her lookalike daughter, Scarlett Thomas, who she shares with her ex and former Corrie actor Ryan Thomas.

Scarlett, 16, wore a floor length black ballgown, which she accompanied with a pair of black heels and accessorised with statement earrings.

Scarlett has recently followed in her parents' acting footsteps, as she joined the cast of Waterloo Road in 2023.

She plays Izzy Charles, the daughter of Chlo (Katie Griffiths) and Donte Charles, who is played by Scarlett's real-life uncle, Adam Thomas. Adam's son, Teddy Thomas, notably played

Scarlett's on-screen brother, Tommy Charles.

It wasn't a great night for Coronation Street at this year's Soap Awards, with the programme suffering a devastating loss after only taking home the specially curated Outstanding

Achievement Award, which went to Roy Cropper star David Neilson.

Emmerdale also faced a crushing blow, after only winning Best Young Performer for April Windsor star Amelia Flanagan, and The Tony Warren Award for long serving cameraman Mike Plant.

It was EastEnders that took home the most awards, collecting a total of eight titles in its 40th anniversary year.

The BBC drama won Best Soap, as well as actress Lacey Turner receiving the award for Best Leading Performer ahead of her upcoming exit from the show.

Steve McFadden won Best Dramatic Performance as Phil Mitchell, while Rudolph Walker and Angela Wynter received a prize for Best On-Screen Partnership as Patrick and Yolande Trueman.

EastEnders also collected the Comedy Performance and Villain of the Year awards for Patsy Palmer (Bianca Jackson) and Navin Chowdhry (Nish Panesar), respectively.

Meanwhile, Hollyoaks won three awards, including Best Newcomer for Frankie Osborne star Isabelle Smith and Best Storyline for Frankie and JJ Osborne's (Ryan Mulvey) sibling abuse plot

last year.

Coronation Street airs at 8pm on Monday, Wednesday and Friday on ITV1 and is available to stream from 7am on ITVX. The British Soap Awards will air at 8pm on Thursday, June 5
