Stu decided to seize an opportunity after Dev Alahan mistakenly received a shipment of cheap and nasty wine.

Stu has taken up a new job at Yasmeen Metcalfe's Speed Daal and decided to deliver the case of the bad wine to Tracy and Steve's home to teach her a lesson.

Tracy and Steve were disgusted by the poor selection of wines, but Stu decided to come clean on tonight's show and delivered the real wine tasting selection to No.1 Coronation Street.

However, during an earlier scene in the episode fans were left disgusted as Tracy and Steve complained about the cheap wine.

The character, played by Simon Gregson, was cutting his toenails in the living room and fans were in hysterics when a stray nail hit Tracy in the face.

Viewers following the show on Twitter blasted the character after the incident.

Fiona said: "Steve do that in the flipping bathroom ewwww! Gross his toenails landing in Tracey's face."

Claw added: "Nobody wants to see Steve's feet. That's gross!"

Ian commented: "Steve do that in the bathroom"

@lightbebe2020 posted: "Hope no one is having dinner while Steve doing his toenails."

Beanio said, alongsde a sick emoji: "Like we need to see Steve cutting his toe nails on tv"

David tweeted: "It's a week of extremes in the soaps alright. The most extreme stunt in the history of #Corrie today with Tracy taking that toenail to the face. Feels like Steve is one of the only characters who can get away with that in modern TV drama?"

Doreen posted, alongside a sick emoji: "Lovely Steve pampering his toes"
