Oh Jane McDonald, let us count the ways we love thee… for now we have another – as new host of the British Soap Awards 2023!
ED’s Queen is taking the reins of the annual ceremony after Phillip Schofield’s departure. He’s left ITV, in case you’ve not heard.
Jane McDonald is an inspired choice to present this show – she couldn’t be more soap than if she were in one herself. Hi Glenda, love you x
The showbiz legend says: “Oh my God…..everyone knows how much I LOVE my soaps, this year I’ve been honoured to be mentioned in Corrie, EastEnders and Emmerdale, so this is just a dream come true. I can’t wait to see all our wonderful soap nominees and celebrate all their hard work with them – roll on the awards, I can’t wait!”
And, for the love of hon, these tweets celebrating her new role are every bit as iconic as she is.
Suddenly next Tuesday night feels worth living again!
Queen of Soaps, here’s your crown
