Coronation Street viewers saw the funny side as the soap served up its “best line ever” – “I’m not a snob, I’ve been to Nando’s.”
The one-liner was delivered by Mary Taylor (Patti Clare) during a chat with Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) in the latest episode of the ITV soap.
As the pair talked, Mary explained she was not snobbish because she had eaten at the chicken chain.
“I’m not a snob Adam, I’ve been to Nando’s,” she said.
Fans flooded Twitter with crying with laughter emojis after the hilarious line.
“Mary you’re a riot,” posted one person, adding a gif of someone spitting out their drink as they snorted with laughter.
