Another added: “The fact that they have given no reason to why the soap awards have been cancelled next year leaves it open to speculation.
“And I speculate that ITV didn’t want #EastEnders winning all the awards.”
A third wrote: “So the one year that EastEnders would most likely sweep the board they’ve scrapped the Soap Awards?? Hmm. Call me cynical.”
A fourth penned: “So ITV cancelled the British Soap Awards 24 in fear that #EastEnders will win awards and their soaps not. This is cheap.”
A fifth typed: “Them(ITV) cancelling the British Soap Swards around the time EastEnders is having one of its biggest and most anticipated storylines of the year, yeah I see right through y’all.”
Another sixth echoed: “The second stage of ITVs #EastEnders sabotage is underway, they can’t have EE win everything 2 times in a row, they only want that for Corrie and Emmerdale.
“@BBCOne it’s time to give us a soap award show, we want one and ITV can not deliver.”
Fans reacted after ITV announced that they are cancelling 2024’s British Soap Awards without an explanation.
