ITV Coronation Street fans taken aback by prices at Rovers Return

Coronation Street fans were taken aback as the price of a glass of wine in the Rovers Return was revealed.

Monday's edition of the long-running soap saw the return of Grace Vickers to the Cobbles.

The character, played by Kate Spencer, hasn't been seen since December, but appeared in Weatherfield tonight for daughter Glory's birthday party.

However, her true motive soon became clear as she was trying to blackmail more money out of Ed and Aggie Bailey. Grace showed her villainous ways over a drink with Ed in Weatherfield's iconic pub.

The scene opened with Grace ordering a "large glass of Merlot, or whatever is the best red" from Rovers Return landlady, Jenny Connor. However, she demanded Ed pay for a drink, but viewers following the show on Twitter were surprised it was priced at just £3.40.

Colin said: "£3.40 for a large Merlot, on my way"

Paul added: "£3.40 for a large glass of wine in the Rovers!"

Suzi posted: "I need to drink in the Rovers Return…£3.40 for that big glass of red wine…what a bargain"

Silvana commented : "£3.40 for a LARGE Merlot in the Rovers???? I don’t even drink wine but that is ABSOLUTELY NOT BELIEVABLE."

Ruth said: "A large glass of the house’s best red is £3.40 at the Rovers apparently! #corrie Bargain!"

Delilah posted: "£3.40 for a large glass of red !! Cheap as chips"

Joanne commented : "Did Jenny just say £3.40 for a large Merlot?! I know I haven’t been to the pub for over 3 years but sounds a bargain!"

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV and the ITV Hub
