From Digital SpyCoronation Street star Samia Smith has signed a new contract with the ITV1 soap. The actress, who plays Maria Sutherland, has decided to stay with the show, despite close friends Tina O’Brien (Sarah Louise) and Nikki Sanderson (Candice) recently leaving. She told The Sun: “I have just signed a new contract. So I can say confidently I’m going nowhere." Talking about her former co-stars, she said: "I still see Tina and Nikki, but not as much as we used to do, obviously. It did feel strange when they were no longer working with me but I am very happy at Coronation Street. "Being an actor, it is amazing to get to act all year round. I'm very lucky indeed to be in such an amazing programme." Smith's character is currently pregnant and planning to marry factory owner boyfriend Liam Connor, played by Rob James-Collier. I like Maria, I'm glad she is staying.

I like Maria too, and I`m also glad she`s staying. I wish the writers would give her a boyfriend who is 100% faithful to her. It seems unfair that she is always being used by various boyfriends constantly. Maria is a very pretty girl, she deserves to be happy and to have a man of her own. I liked her when she first came into it awhen she was so sweet and shy. I thought her and Ty were a lovely couple and it was a shame they split up. Sure Maria is no angel, but her trusting ways does her no favours either in the long run - although I wouldn`t like to see her as a vampy type.

Maybe Kirk was found under the gooseberry bush.

Never been that bothered one way or the other about Maria as a character, and never thought Samia that great as an actress - she speaks oddly (as tho' she's got a mouth full of pebbles), and seems pretty one-dimensional, but have to admit that there has been some improvement lately; funnily enough since the start of Maria's relationship with Liam (which is obviously doomed to failure!).

What have they done with Maria since vamping her up from kennelmaid? Shagged everything in trousers and, er.... Can't think of anything else.

She has been pregnant twice! lol
I agree BC, I can take or leave her. I do prefer her to Candice and Leanne though.

You would think she would have learnt by now.
