Warren Briggs was the drug addicted ex army friend of Scotty (Kiel McNaughton). Warren arrived in 2007 and tried to blackmail Scotty with the death of their friend Greg in exchange for drugs. After being turned down, Warren got himself purposefully mowed down by an ambulance to obtain the drugs. His allegations proved fruitless and he was sent packing. He returned looking for drugs in 2010 but Scotty was shocked to discover Warren's dead body days later in his living room. Weeks later it was revealed Warren was murdered by Penny Rourke (Carolyn Dando) over Greg, her father's, death.

“But it thought no bed too narrow—it stood with lips askew
And shook its great head sadly like the abstract Jew.”
—Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)
“When autonomy is respected, the two-year-old does not carry this unfinished task into later stages of growth. In adolescence, the youngster will again concentrate on independence, but he won’t have to blast the roof off the second time around if it is already well established.”
—Dorothy Corkville Briggs (20th century)
