[edit] Character History
A cruel, spiteful bully, Mark Gibbs takes special delight in tormenting Luke Morgan, eventually attacking him. It had all started at a football training session when Mark was giving trouble, and Luke inadvertently injured Mark’s leg. It left Mark angered because he could not play football professionally. Mark was recovering in hospital and decided to get even with Luke by calling his brothers to beat him up. Mark and his friends continued to trouble Luke when he was training; however, with help from Darren Osborne, Luke put Mark in his place. Still, it made no difference to Mark when he kept on hassling and bullying Luke and soon became friends with Darren. Mark still continued to hassle Luke.
In the late night special "Hollyoaks: Breaking Boundaries", after a football match Luke participated in, Mark and his friends beat Luke up in the changing rooms. What then followed was a vicious attack on Luke when Mark began to chase Luke in the streets of Chester. The pair began a fight when Luke faced up to him, but Mark decided to teach Luke a lesson by raping him over the bonnet of his car. The following day Mark called around to the Morgan house to see Luke and denied that he raped him; He was eventually charged pending trial, however. Luke’s rape case against Mark went to court for four tense days. Mark lied in court claiming that Luke was making it all up; however, Mark was found guilty and sentenced for eight years.
