Make-up free Michelle Keegan

They ruled triumphant at the National Television Awards, scooping Best Serial Drama.
So it was no surprise to see the stars of Coronation Street looking slightly worse for wear as they headed home from London Euston on Thursday afternoon.
The show's stars had a definite look of the morning-after-the-night-before as they boarded the train back to Manchester Piccadilly.

Michelle Keegan managed to raise a smile as she spotted photographers in the station.
Her cheery disposition could be connected to making a good impression her new flame Mark Wright's parents at last night's bash, an extra bonus on top of Coronation Street's success.
 
The brunette actress, who plays Tina McIntyre in the soap, was make-up free for her trek home, and wore a beige coat with furry collar and black sleeves.

It matched her otherwise black outfit perfectly, and also highlighted her golden tan.
Michelle, 22, was in a great mood and tweeted that she had treated herself to a sausage sandwich to help clear her head.
'The morning after the night before... Why not! That's just how we do!' she captioned the tasty snap.

Some of her castmates who also made the two hour train journey home today were Kym Marsh, Sobna Gulati, Brooke Vincent, Anthony Cotton and Paula Lane.
Shobna, who plays Sunita Alahan, and Kym, who plays Michelle Connor, looked tired as they made their way out of Manchester Piccadilly station, their bespectacled eyes serving to emphasise their sleepiness.
The actresses each pulled along their suitcases wearily, and each carried their glamorous gown from the night before over one arm.

Brooke Vincent, also known as Sophie Webster to TV fans, also looked like she might have a headache today, and the actress kept on her dark sunglasses as she exited the train in to the sunlight.
Like Brooke, soap veteran Michelle Collins, who plays landlady Stella Price, wore a hat for her train ride home.

She tweeted: 'What a great night for Coronation street last night every ones a little giddy with joy today x.' [sic]
Brooke was wearing a very similar outfit to the one she went to London in yesterday, as was her good friend Antony Cotton.
The actor, who plays Sean Tully in the soap, wore a smart camel coloured coat and tan brogues for the cross country voyage. 
He carried his Mr. Porter dustbag over one arm, and smiled widely as he breathed in the fresh air of his hometown.

Jenni McAlpine who plays Fiz Stape in the show, was a vision in red.
From her copper locks to her ornate burnt orange scarf to her oxblood Mulberry Bayswater bag, she warmed up the concourse of Manchester Piccadilly with ease. 
She smiled widely from behind a pair of aviator sunglasses as she made her way to the exit of the station.
Her onscreen nemesis Kirsty Soames - known as Natalie Gumade when the cameras have stopped rolling - wasn't far behind her when she got off the train.
An Alexander McQueen style skull scarf hinted at the evil depths her character has sunk to as she launches a domestic abuse campaign against her hapless husband Tyrone, played by Alan Henshall.
Paula Lane, who plays Kylie Platt, went without sunglasses, but found refuge behind her heavy fringe.
Back to work: Brooke wore a cute black hat for her journey home
Tired: Kym Marsh looked worn out as she made her way out of the station

She looked cosy in an oversized black and white knit, and dark burgundy leggings which she wore with inch-adding beige platform trainers.
The show's producers Phil Collinson and Ian Poulson Davis were entrusted to carry the coveted trophy home, and were seen posing with a red carrier bag in the station - it is assumed that the award was safely concealed within.
Other big names using the London to Manchester service today included William Roache, Andy Whyment and Michael Le Vell were all spotted trundling along with their luggage.

Other stars who had been at the National Television Awards ceremony were Jo Joyner and Joanna Lumley, who were both seen out and about in London today.
Jo, who plays Tanya Branning in the BBC 1 soap, was leaving Loose Women when she was photographed.
Despite losing out at last night's awards, she still managed to raise a smile as she got in to a waiting car.
She looked glamorous in an ecru coloured scarf and black trousers, and carried an unusual beige bag with stud detailing.
