ITV have been accused of using unfair tactics to make sure 'Coronation Street' won Best Serial Drama at this year's National Television Awards.

The Manchester-based show beat rival 'EastEnders' to be crowned the UK's favourite soap but the BBC were reportedly furious as ITV had moved 'Emmerdale' from its usual Wednesday 7pm slot and replaced it with Corrie so viewers saw it just moments before the awards show began.
