A Two Doors Down star impressed Glasgow restaurant staff with a champagne hack when she visited for a meal.

Elaine C Smith, who plays fan favourite Christine in the popular BBC series, dined at Indian restaurant Green Gates Cafe in the Merchant City recently for her grandson's birthday.

During her meal, the 64-year-old showed a waiter a tip on how to stop champagne from fizzing over the glass.

In a video shared by the restaurant team on TikTok, she says: "This is what you do. Stick your finger in it."

The clip has since received over 22,000 views and some comments from fans. 

One wrote: "Brilliant never knew that."

One person wrote: "She will need a paracetamol from Morrisons after that", in reference to a quote from her character who says the supermarket does a "good paracetamol".

It comes after the actress visited the same restaurant with her co-stars Jonathan Watson, who plays Colin, and Kieran Hodgson, who plays Gordon.
