One of Britain's best-loved brands has been taken to task after an unfortunate mistake on one of its products. Marks & Spencer is famous for selling items perceived to be a cut above those from other retailers - particularly its food and drink.
But the company has come under fire on social media after an error somehow made its way onto supermarket shelves. Tom Hourigan, a senior journalist at BBC News, noticed the gaffe on a bottle of soda water being sold by the luxury supermarket.
The bottle's label included the tagline 'PERFECT ON IT'S OWN OR AS A MIXER'. Tom highlighted the apostrophe in 'it's', which should not have been used.

Sharing an image of the label on Twitter, tom Wrote: "Oh @marksandspencer what happened here?" Other Twitter users were aghast at the grammatical error which hade made its way onto a finished product.
@petergould47 wrote: "Good to know some people notice these things!" @justineclaire75 tweeted: "Dear, oh dear."
@KatStorrWriter said: "Gah, hurts my eyes. Hate this." And @battaner joked: "It's now 'Mark's & Spencer'."
The retailer was quick to respond to Tom's tweet and pick up on the error. It promised to have the issue looked at quickly.
A spokesperson for M&S replied to Tom's tweet with: "Oh no Tom, thanks for letting us know about this. I've raised this with our Packaging Team so we can look into it and get it sorted ASAP."
M&S has been approached for comment.

Prince Harry’s book Spare was a “mistake” that “considerably worsened” his relationship with brother Prince William, a royal expert has said.
