Simon Gregson's nervous nibble

News just in from the cobbles to the blog is that Simon Gregson, who plays the fab Steve McDonald, has a rather nasty habit.

"I bite my nails until they bleed," he confesses. "I do it on screen for when Steve's nervous or has something on his mind, but I bite them all the time in real life too. As long as I don't spit them in my dinner, my fiance doesn't really mind." What a gent.
