But did any of our Lancashire stars actually win an award? Take a look below

Who were our Lancashire winners?

The late Lancastrian chef Dave Myers won Best Food Show alongside his long term presenting partner Si King for ‘The Hairy Bikers Go West, Go West’.

Dave, who was born in Barrow when it was still part of Lancashire and referred to the county as his home turf in that latest show, sadly died last February aged 66 after a battle with cancer.

During Hairy Bikers Go West, the pair visited Archers Cafe in Morecambe Bay; Global Village Cafe in Lancaster; Lancashire Crisp's base in Rufford, West Lancashire; a gingerbread factory at the back of an Ormskirk house; observed local tomato production at Croft Pack in Tarleton; and visited the now three-Michelin starred Moor Hall in Aughton.

Emmerdale also won Best Soap and its cast boasts Morecambe actress Emma Atkins (Charity Dingle), Burnley actress Nicola Wheller (Nicola King) and Blackpool actos Joe-Warren Plant (Jacob Gallagher)
