Samia Ghadie training for Dancing on Ice

We blogged a while ago the tabloid rumour that Samia Ghadie, who plays Coronation Street's Maria Connor, might be appearing on this year's Dancing on Ice.

And today The Sun has a picture of Samia in training for the show so it does look like that she will be appearing on ITV's skating show, which starts in January.

However, The Sun also reveals that Samia ended up injuring her wrist and left the session at a Manchester ice rink with an ice pack.

I wonder if ice-skating injuries accounted for the bandage on Samia/Maria's arm which we saw in last night's Corrie?
