EastEnders may well have lent the Most Popular Serial Drama gong to Corrie for a bit, and Neil McDermott may have narrowly missed out on Most Popular Newcomer, but Lacey deservedly bagged silverware at the 2009 National Television Awards.
Lacey arrived at the ceremony fashionably late with her sis, Daisy, in tow. She briefly had time to warm her seat before it was announced that she'd beaten the other nominees in the Outstanding Serial Drama Performance category. What a trooper!
Over the past year Stacey has cried more times than Simon Cowell's dished out insults. It's been a toughie. Lacey's biggest storyline has been dealing with the diagnosis of Bipolar disorder, where she's shared dramatic scenes with fellow actress, Gillian Wright (Jean). In the young beauty's acceptance speech, she gave a special shout out to Gillian which was actually very touching. Not that my bottom lip quivered at all.

Watch Lacey talk about her buddy, Charlie Clements, leaving the Square (*boo hoo*), and see how she'll be spending her Valentine's day. Roses are red, violets are blue, well done Lacey, we love you.
