Yes, she sure did in my opinion ... but then she tends to do that with any storyline she is involved with, regardless of how much part she is taking .. again, just my opinion :oQuote:

I think its the way she talks that annoys me more. But not as much as Sineads does!
What happened with her husband who was gay?
I have been wondering abut him too .. what happened to Pablo? She mentioned him the other day .. I presume he went to London (??) to be with the love of his life ...Quote:

Maybe it has to do with the fact they were married when they came to Weatherfield? Graeme Proctor´s wife-to-be was in Britain on a visa which was running out and he married her so she could stay ..Quote:

So she will be caught by the home office for having a fake marriage. She has lost her dog plus her bank account will be wiped out. That explains it her damsel in distress routine seems to appeal to Aidan.
The fake marriage is a pretty serious offence isn't it?Quote:

It is hard to feel sympathy for Maria and I think pairing her with Aidan could ruin him tooQuote:

Not clear on Internet what the consequences are for fake marriage. One of my friends was accused of a fake marriage and her husband was deported. Nothing happened to her. Anyway it was not fake and he never got to live with his two boys.
That's a very sad story. :(Quote:

Did he not clear a business account?Quote:

My memory is hazy but I've a feeling Johnny gave the money to Aidan temporarily as some kind of tax evasion thing.Quote:

carla has kept her share afaik
maria is a such a dull character that no storyline makes her interesting unless she is killed off :p

I always thought they kept her because of her looks.
Really!? Well, as far as I'm concerned, they can unkeep her if that's their reason!Quote:

She is pretty boring, you have to admit.
She's not the most scintillating of characters, but in my opinion there's many far more boring characters than Maria in Corrie at the moment. She hasn't had any decent storylines for a long time which doesn't help.Quote:

Put it this way: for me Maria is a middle of the road character who's had some very good moments in the past. She's not in the top tier of characters/actors in Corrie, but neither is she someone who I'd axe given half the chance (and there's quite a few of those).
Even with decent storylines, she just does not deliver them as far as I am concerned ... maybe the production team know her limitations and therefore don´t give her anything too demanding ...
I don't really care very much one way or the other about Maria I have to say. But I can remember when she and Carla were involved in the story over Liam together that I just felt how weak she was both as an actor and as a character. Both Alison and Carla knocked spots off her (if you see what I mean) and I certainly knew who I'd want if I was Liam!
I disagree with you there as I always found Carla unattractive because she was so hard-faced - but then as a straight female what would I know? :DQuote:

I have been wanting Aidan with Alya since he started at the factory, as they had more potential to me that him and Eva or now him and Maria, plus the bound over their mother's deathsQuote:
