Dressing-Up Boxes

‘WHEN it comes to being loved and worshiped even Eddie Wessex can doff his absurd oversized Panama hat in the direction of the soap actors’ guild.

Frock horror!

All the stars of the smallest screen came out to play for the British Soap Awards, and Hello! has the pictures.

Little can be said about the awards themselves, other than well done to Roly the poodle for being Most Fanciable Dog In Soap and to Megan Hargreaves, who plays Seth’s moustache in Emmerdale with such selfless professionalism.

What we will look at are the outfits. The rule for the girls is to flaunt whatever you’ve got, whether you have it or not.

We are thus treated to a selection of outfits a five-year-old girl with a dressing-up box would think were to die for. Sadly, the rest of us think they are horrible.

The message to the Hollyoaks girls, whose sense of style is on a par with their acting abilities, is next time you want to look good, stand next to Prince Edward.

And if he’s away, stick next to Carole Vorderman like a nervous limpet.
