The pair topped the public votes for the best male and female bottoms around.

Shobna, who plays Sunita Alahan in the Weatherfield-based soap, said she had to thank her mother for her prize-winning asset, which help her claim the cheeky title.

'I am really honoured and flattered to be a winner of this year's competition and for my bum to be etched into the history of the award's alumni - a list which includes so many other distinguished bottoms,' she said.

Barrowman, who is best known for his portrayal of Captain Jack Harkness in Doctor Who spinoff Torchwood, was delighted to be named Rear of the Year.

'With tush tightly toned, cheeks firmly clenched and a big smile on my face, I'm thrilled to be awarded the accolade,' the West End star said.

Sally Allen, from the sponsors of the award, Wizard Jeans, called the winners 'two excellent examples of this year's ideal rear'.

'Shobna's slim but womanly silhouette is a fine example of the happy, healthy female form for 2012 and John's rear is clearly admired on an international basis, judging by the number of fans who voted for him,' she said.

The pair join an elite list of winners of the award including Fiona Bruce, Rachel Stevens, Gary Barlow and Anton Du Beke.
