Mark Hughes (born 15 December 1976 in Kurri Kurri, New South Wales) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer of the 1990s and 2000s. He played club football for the Newcastle Knights in the Australian National Rugby League (NRL) and later for the Catalans Dragons in the European Super League. He primarily played at fullback or in the centres. In 2013, he was diagnosed with brain cancer and subsequently established the Mark Hughes Foundation.
Hughes played for the Kurri Kurri Bulldogs in their 1995 grand final victory. He then joined the Newcastle Knights and in his debut season he was on the wing in Newcastle's maiden Grand Final victory over Manly in the 1997 Optus Cup final. He subsequently shifted to the centres where he played in the Knights' 2001 NRL grand final victory.
Having won the 2001 NRL Premiership, the Knights traveled to England to play the 2002 World Club Challenge against Super League champions, the Bradford Bulls. Hughes played at centre in Newcastle's loss. Hughes was selected for all three games for the New South Wales Blues in the 2001 Origin series where he played at fullback.
The following is a list of characters that first appeared in the British soap opera Emmerdale in 1988, by order of first appearance.
Denis Rigg appeared between 1988 and 1989. He cheated Alan Turner into selling his share of Home Farm to him at a low price. Alan's business partner, Joe Sugden was angry at this and promptly sold his share too. Denis then went on to terrorise the villagers by threatening to evict them all from their homes if they refused to comply with his demands as he owned most of the houses and farms in the area. Denis looked to Emmerdale Farm to expand his business and this led to a confrontation between him and Joe. In the barn, a bull got aggravated by Denis's threatening and aggressive behaviour and impaled him against a wall, killing him.
Mark Hughes, played by Craig McKay, arrived in the village as a 15-year-old in 1988 with his mother Kate and sister Rachel. Mark had been a model son until the breakdown of his parents marriage. He then became a troublesome teenager which coincided with his mother's relationship and subsequent marriage to Joe Sugden.
