I think that Kym Marsh and Diane Parrish are strong competitors in the Best Actress category too, but I agree that if Charlotte doesn't win then something is wrong. 

 

I am praying that John wins and they don't give it to Danny Miller for the 1000th time. Aaron slings the usual boogers and tears and they wanna give it to him.

Oh please no! Not Danny Miller....

Yes, he did some fine stuff during Aaron's coming out story, but since then it has all gone downhill. Like with Debbie all his stories seem to revolve around him being miserable, and it's exhausting to watch. Maybe I'm a bit biased because of my (probably very well-known) feelings towards the Dingle family, but, again just like with Debbie, I cannot muster any sympathy for Aaron. And while part of that can be attributed to my anti-Dingle sentiment, part of the blame must go to Danny Miller. He, much like Charley Webb, just cannot make me feel anything other than boredom towards their characters.

Sadly I'd say John Middleton has no real chance (at best he might make the shortlist but I'm not expecting it). I also think Charlotte Bellamy will lose out to abrasive "actress" Kym Marsh, who got hyped for managing to act for about 3 days out of 10 years in the role. 

 

I noticed that when Digital Spy put up the names, first I didn't even see the Emmerdale actresses (maybe I just missed it) and they also had big photos of Danny Dyer and Kym Marsh under the names. Maybe they just wanted clicks but if that was any attempt to influence votes, how tacky. 

 

I'll be voting John, Charlotte, Emmerdale. If I can vote.

 

I think Danny Miller's a very good actor but the prison stuff was terribly done and they have cashed out on too much misery for Aaron. 

 

I think Jack P Shepherd will win.

@DRW50, if John Middleton doesn't win then it'll be a travesty b/c he was the BEST actor in all the UK soaps this past year. 

 

I totally forgot about Jack P Shepherd and his scenes when Kylie was killed. I'm beginning to think that Scott Maslen might be a dark horse too over his scenes with Ronnie's death. You know how rabid Ronnie & Jack fans are. They might be their last hoorah to get him on the shortlist too. 

 

I wouldn't mind Matt Wolfenden getting some shine too as he played David's cancer story quite well too.

He's not a piece of ass and that tends to get votes. I hope he will at least win Dramatic Performance but not expecting anything. 

 

Scott Maslen has won a few before...I guess it depends on whether that fanbase is there now.

I don't mind it if the panel balances it, but they rarely do. A few years ago they gave Kellie Bright a dramatic performance award when it was obvious she would win the popular award. She deserved neither. After the "Stax" reveal in 2007 they did the same with Jo Joyner, who was also undeserving, and beat out Charlotte Bellamy, which still bothers me. I just know that Kym Marsh, who is most suited to a women's prison film, will beat Charlotte out to some of these awards. Or Lacey Turner, who I like, but wins every year.

Please don't put that out in the stratosphere (re: Lacey Turner). I am so sick of her racking up on wins for mediocre material. 

 

I utterly find it appalling how actresses like Charlotte [Bellamy], Diane [Parish], and Natalie [J. Robb] stay getting overlooked when they possess true leading actress qualities. 

 

With many soap awards, I with that they'd do a hybrid of the Daytime Emmys/British Soap Awards and Soap Opera Digest Awards. Do panel based categories & some superlative categories for the fans to vote on. I wish the BSA would do lead & supporting categories as a lot of good supporting characters on soaps get overlooked.

    • I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).
    • I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.
    • Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna 
    • Who went bowling? JFP & Anna? Is there any more to this?  
    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
    • Angry Dante was hot; sorry, but I'm not going to pretend it wasn't awesome seeing Dominic Zamprogna act his ass off in a way that was not crying.
    • Thanks, interesting and so believable (no Lonatrat or Clones...)Instead of the Lewis family he should have made the Oil family Granger...even if the audience didn't remember that one off character it would have been interesting to tie it into the fictional GL world.
    • Dante needs stick removed from his butt
