Last night viewers watched as Coronation Street and Emmerdale battled it out to find out who knew their soap the best.

Both teams played rounds that tested their knowledge of the past year in soapland.

But while many viewers enjoyed the show, some complained that EastEnders was not involved.

One vented: “They should do a big big soap quiz with corrie Emmerdale, EastEnders and hollyoaks.”

While this one said: “Still have to insist that it would be great if they did a big big soap quiz every 4 years with eastenders and hollyoaks as well as corrie and emmerdale… like the world cup but for soap quizzes.”

However, the reason for EastEnders not being involved is because the show is just for ITV soaps.

Meanwhile, last night saw lots of surprises as Corrie and Emmerdale went head to head.

Heading up the Coronation Street team, was returning captain Jack P Shepherd, and he was joined by Sally Dynevor, who plays Sally Metcalfe, and actor Ryan Russell, who is known for playing Michael Bailey.

While over on the Emmerdale team, Marlon Dingle star Mark Charnock, was in charge.

He was joined by Nicola Wheeler, who has played her character Nicola King since arriving in the village in 2001.

Nicola and Mark are joined by Jurell Carter, who plays Nate Robinson.

But as much as Corrie tried, it was Emmerdale who were triumphant.

The final score saw them clinch victory with 26 points over Coronation Street’s 24.

“I’m sorry,” Mark said during his winner’s speech. “This is lovely, we love doing this show. It’s always close but it really feels important to win it.”

Celebrating their win, the official Emmerdale account tweeted: “Sorry @itvcorrie But there could only be one winner… see you next year (We love you really!)”

Their soap rivals were gracious in defeat, responding: “We totally let them win. It’s the taking part that counts anyway, right!? We love you guys @emmerdale, it’s always a blast.”

In fact it was their fifth victory, since The Big Quiz first aired back in 2011.
