The biggest event in the soap calendar returned in celebration of a mammoth twelve months of murder, mystery, make ups, break ups, trials, tribulations and tears.
Tune in to the full awards show on Sunday 29th May at 8pm on ITV.
But if you can't wait that long to see what Coronation Street won, look below!
The residents of Coronation Street are about to discover that you can’t keep secrets buried forever!
Carla is heading towards her wedding to Nick, while desperately trying to stop Tracy from spilling the beans about her ill-judged one night stand with Robert.
And over at number 8 the Platt family are still hiding the grisly secret of Callum's body being buried under the floor of Gail’s granny flat.
Now their past actions look set to catch up with them all as Callum’s corpse is finally unearthed and Tracy does her best to ruin Carla’s dream wedding.
The unmissable episodes will run over five days but will cover a dramatic 24-hour period in the lives of Weatherfield’s residents.
The week starts with the whole street preparing for the wedding of Nick and Carla which in true soap style is packed with shocks and surprises.
The stakes could not be higher for Carla. As the day of the wedding draws closer Johnny is determined to ensure that Tracy will not destroy his daughter’s big day but when he discovers that her sabotage has already started he is forced to resort to desperate measures to keep her away from the ceremony.
As he argues with Tracy in the factory he seizes the opportunity and locks her in the store cupboard. Has Johnny done enough to stop Tracy revealing all about Carla and Robert? Will Carla make it down the aisle to become Mrs Tilsley? Will Nick’s brain injury halt the proceedings?
With Alison King about to leave the cobbles, is Carla driving off happily into the sunset with Tracy glad to see the back of her, or does her arch nemesis have other plans?
As if the drama of the wedding is not enough for one week, things take a sinister turn over at the Platts when a dramatic sequence of events leads to the discovery of a body at number 8.
As the police knock on the door is this finally the end of the road for Sarah, Kylie and David?

Coronation Street was yesterday (Wednesday 13th April) visited by HRH The Princess Royal, alongside 50 senior and diverse leaders from businesses, Governments and NGOs across the Commonwealth.
The visit to the site was part of a wider CSC Leaders ‘Common Purpose’ visit to the UK.
Marie Mohan, Chief Executive of Common Purpose UK, said:
“We are delighted that Commonwealth leaders are visiting Manchester this year to explore city-wide collaboration.
"At Common Purpose, we have been helping leaders to cross boundaries in Manchester for many years, introducing them to diverse people and places and showing them how they might do things differently.
"The visit to Coronation Street in MediaCityUK is definitely a highlight for the visitors. It’s fascinating to learn about how ITV works in collaboration with other sectors and industries.”
Her Royal Highness talking to Head of Production Robbie Sandison
Robbie Sandison, Head of Production for Coronation Street, said:
“It was a delight to welcome Her Royal Highness and leaders from across the Commonwealth to the cobbles.
"Coronation Street has worked together across various industries in the Greater Manchester community for over 50 years and together with ITV we’re very proud of our place in the region’s history."
A memorial for Peter Baldwin will be held on Thursday 14th April.
Peter's service will be at:
St. Paul's (the actors church)
Bedford Street
Covent Garden
WC2E 9ED
All are welcome.
The funeral of Coronation Street creator, Tony Warren MBE will be held today (Friday 18th March).
The Service will be at Manchester Cathedral at 2.00pm.
It is with great sadness that Coronation Street confirms legendary creator and acclaimed writer Tony Warren MBE, passed away peacefully last night surrounded by his loving friends (1 March 2016), aged 79, after a short illness.
All who worked with Tony throughout his illustrious career had the utmost respect for his achievements and he remained a Consultant on the show until the day he died.
He was considered one of the television industry’s greatest minds as he devised the idea for the Weatherfield soap at the age of 24 at the very beginning of his acclaimed writing career.
John Whiston, Creative Director, Soaps for ITV Studios paid a moving tribute to Tony:
“Amid the many and much deserved tributes to Tony Warren, surely there can be no greater tribute than that the show he created 56 years ago is still the number one show on British TV. Tony infused Coronation Street with his own spirit, one that was at the same time dramatic and credible, exciting and grounded, funny and humane.
"It is Tony's spirit that has kept the show fresh and relevant all these years and will do for years to come. All who are lucky enough to work on the show owe Tony a huge amount of gratitude. As do all the millions who tune into Coronation Street week after week.”
Born Anthony McVay Simpson in Eccles, Manchester, Tony was a regular visitor to the soap’s set in Trafford, Greater Manchester, and loved nothing more than to catch up with the cast and crew during breaks in filming whilst offering the actors insightful feedback about their characters and storylines.
Coronation Street’s Executive Producer Kieran Roberts has spent nearly 15 years working alongside Tony:
“Tony Warren the writer was a pioneer, a revolutionary, a true genius, a giant of British television. He will rightly be remembered around the world as the creator of Coronation Street but those of us lucky enough to have worked on his wonderful show and to have known him will also remember the man: the razor-sharp intelligence; the brilliant, often mischievous sense of humour, the courage and conviction, the passion for people, the immense generosity of spirit and capacity for love.
"We all deeply mourn his passing but celebrate his work and his life, both of which have made the world an infinitely richer place.”
