The investors on BBC’s Dragons’ Den might have thought his creation was junk but this is one entrepreneur that has proven them wrong reports the Mail Online.

James Nash refused to give up on his dream and he is having the last laugh as Marks & Spencer struggle to keep up with demand for his ‘cup-a- wine’ concept.

Mr Nash’s invention – a single-serve plastic glass of French wine with a tear-off lid – solves the problem of feeling like a glass of wine but not having a glass or a corkscrew.

And you don’t have to buy a whole bottle if you want only a glass.

M&S reports that the glasses are proving hugely popular with workers at lunch-time and with commuters who enjoy a drink on the train home, but draw the line at swigging out of a bottle of chardonnay.

The 187ml glasses of Le Froglet rosé, chardonnay or shiraz equate to about a quarter of a bottle of wine.
