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.

Famous quotes containing the words warren and/or briggs:
“It is difficult to believe that even idiots ever succumbed to such transparent contradictions, to such gaudy processions of mere counter-words, to so vast and obvious a nonsensicality ... sentence after sentence that has no apparent meaning at all—stuff quite as bad as the worst bosh of Warren Gamaliel Harding.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“The opposite of love is not hate, as many believe, but rather indifference. Nothing communicates disinterest more clearly than distancing. A child cannot feel valued by parents who are forever absorbed in their own affairs.”
—Dorothy Corkville Briggs (20th century)
