Hollyoaks actor, Guy Burnet, is due to reappear on our screens later this year as his character Craig Dean returns from Dublin to rekindle his love with John Paul McQueen.

He has also been lined up for a late night version of the show scheduled for November.

Guy told The Sun: “I’ve had so much support from fans since I left the show, so it’s great to have the opportunity to reprise the storyline and give viewers a resolution to the Craig and John Paul story.”

Producer Bryan Kirkwood added: “The Craig and John Paul story is one of the biggest and most successful that Hollyoaks has told, winning many awards and legions of fans. I’m delighted that Guy has agreed to come back and excited to see how viewers will react to what we have in store.”
