The RadioTimes.com Soap Awards<\/strong>, sponsored by Inspired Villages<\/a>, is due to take place on 13th July in Manchester.<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s one very important matter of the vote to be decided upon before we get there.<\/p>\n

Fans can have their say in six exciting categories, and this page contains the vote for Best Comedy Performance.<\/p>\n

So without further ado, cast your vote below \u2013 make sure to keep this page bookmarked as you\u2019ll be able to vote once every day<\/strong>.<\/p>\nThere seems to be an issue with the quiz, please try again.\n

And the nominations for Best Comedic Performance are\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Jodie Prenger (Glenda Shuttleworth), Coronation Street<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Jodie\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>

There are some characters who just bring joy whenever they\u2019re on screen, and Glenda is undoubtedly one of them. Performed to perfection by Jodie Prenger, Glenda has been one of the best additions to Corrie in recent years, bringing lots of laughter and comic relief amid darker storylines. She\u2019s Corrie through and through, and the soap world is much richer with someone like Glenda in it.<\/p>\n

Jonny Freeman (Reiss Colwell), EastEnders<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hapless Reiss has won over viewers\u2019 hearts since his arrival in 2022, and EastEnders has made perfect use of him since his arrival, pairing him with the iconic Sonia. Jonny Freeman\u2019s portrayal is delicate and never over-played, meaning Reiss\u2019s one-liners sit with you for days, not moments. Furthermore, he\u2019s been able to flex into a more serious storyline as Sonia and Reiss try to conceive via IVF, showing light in what could be a taxing storyline.<\/p>\n

Lisa Riley (Mandy Dingle), Emmerdale<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"Paddy\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>
ITV<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\n

If there\u2019s one person who knows her character inside-out, it\u2019s Lisa Riley. This confidence in who Mandy Dingle is brings about top notch comedic performances with ease. Viewers know that when Mandy\u2019s on screen, we\u2019re in safe hands. Riley has shown immense range over the past couple of years, especially in support of on-screen son Vinny, but it\u2019s her comedy she really excels at. Every soap needs a Mandy.<\/p>\n

Jorgie Porter (Theresa McQueen), Hollyoaks<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"hollyoaks\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\n

Nobody makes a viewer chuckle like loveable Theresa McQueen. The blonde bombshell returned in dramatic fashion and was tied up in one of the biggest stories Hollyoaks has ever done with the crash. Porter can flick with ease between high drama and lighter moments showing her versatility as a soap star. Hollyoaks is richer whenever Theresa is on the scene, that\u2019s without a doubt.<\/p>\n

Diane Langton (Nana McQueen), Hollyoaks<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\"hollyoaks\n<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/div>\n

Diane Langton has pure funny bones, simple as. The larger-than-life Nana McQueen\u2019s star is as bright as her hair, and we love her for it. She\u2019s also undoubtedly the heart of the iconic McQueens, and has been crucial in Mercedes and Warren\u2019s story over the past 12 months. Where would we all be without Nana?<\/p>\n
