The Inside Soap Awards returned for another year of celebrations as fan-favourite soap actors let their hair down after winning big awards.

Stars from Coronation Street, Emmerdale, EastEnders, and Hollyoaks were all in attendance, hoping to score accolades for their performances. It was the cast of EastEnders who managed to scoop up six gongs on Monday night, but actors from across soap land all let loose following the award ceremony. They all piled into taxis waiting outside Salsa Temple in London following the boozy bash, with some looking worse for wear.

Danielle Harold certainly partied hard after her win earlier in the evening. She took home the Best Actress award for her heart-breaking performance as Lola Pearce. The soap star looked gorgeous in a while bralette and matching white suit as she clutched her award when leaving the party. Danielle seemed in good spirits as she laughed with her co-stars whilst drinking champagne in the smoking area before getting into a taxi with Jamie Borthwick.

Lucy Fallon and Tina O'Brien also had a great night partying as they left the venue holding onto each other. The soap stars looked bleary eyed as they made their way to a taxi. Lucy, 27, looked stunning in a red mini dress but her matching heels appeared to cause her trouble as she got into the cab. The actress was left stumbling into the back of the car as she tried to make her way home. Luckily, Lucy remained in good spirits as she smiled at the cameras when finally getting into her seat.

Emma Barton was all smiles as she headed home. She strutted her way to her taxi in a stylish mesh sequined top, black leather shorts and heeled boots. While Shane Richie struggled to keep his eyes open as he made his way home from the glitzy bash after having a chat with Max Bowden. Barney Walsh appeared to have a great night as he chatted to his co-stars in the smoking area.

The award show saw Jamie Borthwick, who plays Jay Brown, win Best Actor, whilst the Best Young Performer gong went to Isabella Brown, who portrays young Lexi - Lola's daughter - on the programme. EastEnders also took the Best Soap award home. Ben Mitchell star Max Bowden took home the Soap Superstar of 2023 award for his portrayal of struggling Ben, with his performance described as "one that goes above and beyond the call of duty".
