After a fantastic year of drama in Walford, EastEnders has bagged another precious and prestigious gong at last night's Royal Television Society Awards. Hooray!

The show fought off tough competition in a strong year of fantastic drama to win Best Soap and Continuing Drama at the London star-filled ceremony.

Judges commended Lindsey Coulson's "stunning performance".

The prize, awarded based on submitted episodes of Billie's death, is a fantastic accolade for the soap.

The judging jury said that the episodes were: "Economically written, beautifully executed, a real class above the rest with a stunning central performance from Lindsey Coulson."

Not only did your fave soap come out on top last night, but it was a brilliant night for a host of other BBC programmes last night, including Sherlock in the drama series category, Miranda Hart took away two prizes for her BBC Two comedy series Miranda, including her scriptwriting skills.

Also, Prof Brian Cox was a double winner for his presenting skills and his BBC Two series Wonders of the Solar System.
