The 2015 British Soap Awards honoured the best in British soap operas throughout 2014 and 2015. The ceremony was held on 16 May 2015 at the Palace Theatre, Manchester, and was later broadcast on ITV1 and STV. The publicly voted categories were announced on 30 March 2015, with the vote opening that same day.[1] This included a longlist for the Best Actress and Actor awards.[2] The shortlist, including panel nominations, was released on 27 April 2015.[3] The accolades for Sexiest Female and Male, which were formerly voted for by the public, were axed for this ceremony. This was due to reports of cast members being embarrassed by the accolade.[4]
