The ‘EastEnders’ star was handed the Television and Radio Industries Club’s Soap Personality gong for his portrayal of Mick Carter in the BBC One drama and claimed the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ star – who he’s clashed with on Twitter over the past week – is "obsessed" with him during his acceptance speech.
