Three soap stars - from very different decades - wear the same dress to awards ceremony

There's nothing more embarrassing than arriving at a party sporting the same outfit as someone else.

So spare a thought for Ali Bastian, Brooke Kinsella and Sherrie Hewson who all turned up to the Inside Soap Awards wearing exactly the same dress!

Even worse, Ali and Brooke - both 26 - are over 30 years younger than Sherrie, 59, who is old enough to be their mum.

The coveted sequined jersey 'Lust' dress is from French Connection and costs £160.

But did our soap stars know it also comes in midnight blue? Obviously not.

Ali, who appears in The Bill, teamed her LBD with black knee-high boots. And her hunky Strictly Come Dancing partner Brian Fortuna.

Ex-EastEnders actress Brooke kept things simple with bare legs, peep-toe shoes and left her long blonde hair loose around her shoulders.

Sherrie - a presenter on lunch-time cackle-fest Loose Women - sensibly opted for tights for her older figure.

Who do you think wore it worst?! Brooke, Ali or Sherrie?
