At the time, Carol said, "I am both surprised and flattered to win this award a second time, especially at this stage of my life.

"As I said when I won in 2011, I always thought that there were a lot of people who were happy to see the back of me." It seems now that there is even more than I thought.

The very first award at the back of the year was given to actress Barbara Windsor in 1976, but it was only during Felicity Kendal's victory in 1981 that it became an annual event with a presentation .

Enchanted: the former Countdown star seemed to have had a wonderful afternoon

While the TV star recently revealed that her 50th birthday was the best decade of her life, she admitted that it was not without difficulties and that she had thought about her depression problems due to fluctuating hormones during menopause.

"I went through the year 2015 and I started to feel really weak," she said on Loose Women. "I found that it had become so weak that it was like a physical pain, it looked like a real depression. Sometimes I thought about how I could stop that feeling.

"Doctors would say that it is an antidepressant. I did not want to go to a doctor. These were almost suicidal thoughts if you like, but I would never have done it because I had children.
