Coronation Street missed out on best serial drama with Emmerdale scooping the prize. And the cast and crew as host Joel Dommett surprised them with the pre-recorded speech from King Charles to mark the soap's 50th anniversary Charles said he was “delighted” to be celebrating the milestone, noting that he is old enough to remember when the show was called Emmerdale Farm.

He added: “It is a testament to all the hard work of its production team that it has since become such an important British institution and a major British export with hundreds of thousands of fans from Scandinavia to New Zealand, all keen to follow the fortunes of what is left of the Sugdens and their new neighbours. “What makes Emmerdale so special is that it has kept true to the vision of its original writer, Kevin Laffan, who wanted to demonstrate that farming is not just a job – it’s a whole way of life. “On a daily basis, Emmerdale continues to depict what life is really like for those who work the land and protect our precious countryside.
