Last month, fans of the show saw Luke spot Mark when he and Mandy visited Chester city. However, his blood will run cold when Mark returns to the village and turns up at the Osborne's house.
It is obvious that Luke is still terrified about seeing his rapist after 17 years but he desperately wants an apology from him and for Mark to admit that what he did was wrong, so he can move on with his life.
Although Mark has since moved on and is now married to his wife Jenna, she is none the wiser that he raped Luke.
Knowing that Luke can ruin his life, will Mark relent? And how long is he in the village for?
Hollyoaks have also teased Tony Hutchinson's BFF Finn Finnigan's return this month. It was previously confirmed that James Redmond would reprise his role on the Channel 4 show and now the actor has opened up about what's in store following his arrival.
