There were winners and losers at the awards in terms of fashion and accolades, scroll down to find out who won the awards and have a look at all the photos from the night.

StyleJacking was impressed by the Essex girls. We loved Chloe Sims’ regal purple dress which showed off her surgically enhanced assets and Lydia Bright channelled some Hollywood glamour in a black and gold vintage dress – see the photos here.

Amy Childs did not do as well in the fashion stakes with a frilly white number that was just cheap looking! Shona McGarty who plays Whitney Dean in Eastenders also opted for a white dress, this time a shorter number.

Adele Silvia impressed with a little red dress that her character, Kelly Windsor in Emmerdale, would have been proud of unlike Paula Lane who could not have looked less like her Coronation Street character in a long polka dot maxi dress. The dress drowned the actress’s small frame.

Seasoned red carpet regular Michelle Collins looked elegant in a black and gold Grecian style number as she appeared for the first time for Coronation Street.

New mother Holly Willoughby looked cute but StyleJackingdid not like her animal print dress, it was a bit cheap looking!

“I’ve never witnessed a personal attack like Jim made on Brian – it was so wrong,” Adele told the News of the World. “There’s a lot of things that haven’t been seen. I know there were worse things he said than the shirt-lifter – stuff that wasn’t shown.

“He said to Brian in the kitchen, ‘Are you working on pastries because you’re a poof?’ and ‘Are you sleeping in the girls’ bedrooms?’ Why would he? He’s a man.

“Then on Sunday back at the house when Jim was kicking off, Abbey [Clancy] was so worried about what was going on she hung her apron over the camera. Jim told her to take it down. He wanted the attention he’d get from being so controversial.”

Master Chef Marco Pierre White is thought to back the Emmerdale actress to win after telling her:

“If I had to choose a winner, it would be you. You’ve worked so hard compared to everybody else.”

“I found blow torching the pigs’ trotters quite exciting,” Adele admitted. “I think I am a bit sadistic because I really enjoyed ripping the head off the langoustine as well!

“I love doing the pigs’ trotters. You have to blow torch the knuckles and then you have to burn away the hairs and then split the toes and burn off the hairs between the toes. It’s like burnt hair, it smells like death.”

Aged 26

Food Heaven: Beef Wellington with vegetables, fruit salad and a frozen Pina Colada.

Food Hell: Chilli powder or anything really hot.

Actress Adele Silva, best known for playing superbitch Kelly Windsor in Emmerdale, admits she’s not the greatest cook in the world and she’s not wrong. In preparation for Hell’s Kitchen she learnt she doesn’t even know how to boil an egg.

“I decided to make a tuna nicoise salad and kept joking that I couldn’t boil an egg, and I actually couldn’t! They weren’t cooked when I cracked them open. I didn’t boil the water for long enough – I thought it was three minutes from putting them in the water not from when the water was boiling,” laughs Adele.

Sexy Adele is currently single, and wants to become a whizz in the kitchen to wow any potential husbands out there. And who knows she may find love along the way…

“This is why I’m learning to cook – to be a perfect wife in years to come! I’m already a really good cleaner! What’s meant to be is meant to be – that’s my mantra in life. But I’ve been so busy at work, finding love has not been at the forefront of my mind. And now I’m going to be busy learning to cook.”

Adele says she’s always vowed she would only do a reality TV show if she could learn a new skill from it, and thinks Hell’s Kitchen will provide just that.

“To be taught by Marco Pierre White, who is one of the best, is a huge bonus. Obviously it is going to be a challenge but I think it’s one of those things I’ll get a great kick out of and will be a great challenge – hopefully I’ll do really well and I’ll be able to cook.”

Adele really loves good food, and says she admires Gordon Ramsay and loves Jamie Oliver’s cooking but thinks he needs to take a leaf out of Delia’s book and give more instructions.

“It puts me off when I watch him because he just throws everything together and I need instructions on what to do! Jamie Oliver is very much throw this in, throw that in, a little bit of this and I’m like ‘how much is a bit’?!”

As well as perfecting her cooking skills Adele is keen for the public to see she’s nothing like her gold-digging character Kelly.

“My character in Emmerdale is a bit of a bitch, a bit of a gold-digger, not very girly and quite hard – I am the complete opposite. I’m very girly, very bubbly, very giggly and have always got a smile on my face.”

Whilst she’s busy working Adele struggles to find time to cook properly, and usually only has time for chicken salads or tuna pasta, and reveals that she can be quite a fussy eater – she only had her first curry a year ago!

“I thought, stupidly, that all curries were going to be spicy. But then people told me that you can get mild ones, so I tried it and I love it – chicken bhuna! That was about a year ago, and I used to say ‘I don’t like olives’ or ‘I don’t like houmous’ but now I love them.”

Adele describes herself as “a real dolly daydream”, and “a bit of an airhead” but says she will take criticism on the chin if it’s fair.

“If someone is right and I’m wrong then you just have to grin and bear it, throw your hands up say ‘yep I’ve done wrong and I’m sorry’ but then get on with it. I also think it’ll be really fraught conditions anyway so there will probably be a time where I might feel that I might need to go off and have a bit of a cry.”

She already has one thing in common with Marco that may stand her in good stead – they both have Italian blood – and she’s definitely prepared to impress him.

“My nan and my great-nan were Italian. I love Italian food, pasta and things like that. I have the utmost respect for Marco, give credit where credit is due. I am here to learn and I am going to work as hard as I can, always put in 110% and hopefully I will end up one of his star pupils!

“But I’m really nervous about it in the respect that it’s a completely new experience and I’m quite competitive – I always want to do things really well – so if I muck up I’ll really beat myself up about it. At the end of the day if I come out of it knowing I did the best that I could then I can’t go wrong really.”

Adele is so fond of Italy that she plans to go travelling there once she’s mastered cooking in Hell’s Kitchen.

“I want to go off travelling afterwards, go to Italy and maybe go to Australia. I love not knowing what’s around the corner; it’s quite exciting not knowing what to do next. It would be great if more TV work comes up but we’ll just have to wait and see.

“After leaving Emmerdale I just wanted a bit of a break. The producers have been really good saying that they would love me to come back, so I’m just calling it a break. I know I am so lucky in that respect but on the other hand I didn’t want to ruin my character, and with the way that I leave and what I can go back to it should be good,” she says.
