Doctors has three more awards to add to its collection, as it came away victorious winning Best Storyline, Best Single Episode and Best Dramatic Performance at The British Soap Awards 2009.
The Doctors story of receptionist Vivien March being raped, and the subsequent aftermath of the trial and Vivien’s recovery, was chosen by a panel of expert judges as the Best Storyline.
Will Trotter, Executive Producer of Doctors, says to win the Best Storyline award is a huge honour: “To win any award is fantastic, but to win Best Storyline against the four other soaps is a first for Doctors, and is the pinnacle of the soap awards. Quite simply Doctors has the Best Storyline in soap drama on TV last year and that’s as good as it gets.”

Scientists now believe this powerful weather phenomenon is now changing its pattern of behaviour and could have an even bigger impact on our climate and the way we live our lives.
Interviewees include Sir Brian Hoskins, University of Reading and Kirsty McCabe from the BBC Weather Centre… Read more & comment »
