Guy Warner is a fictional character on the New Zealand soap opera Shortland Street who was portrayed by Craig Parker in a guest role in 1992 before returning as core cast from 1993 to 1996. Guy returned for the shows 15th anniversary in May 2007 and again from December 2007 to April 2008.
Craig Parker was cast as the role of Guy - Chris Warner's (Michael Galvin) brother, in 1992, a role he maintained for 4 years. Parker quit the role and filmed his final scenes in March 1996. Parker made his final appearance in an episode written by Steven Zanoski that aired in May that year. However producers ensured the character may return. Parker exited alongside screen brother Michael Galvin and originally this was going to be the start of the series ultimate ending, however the show continued to renew and ended up ongoing. In May 2007 it was announced that Guy would be returning as part of the shows 15th anniversary. Parker revealed that he originally turned down the role, but after learning of his storylines and the development of the Tuesday character, he agreed to return in a more antagonistic role, he stated; "Working with Michael [Galvin] again and Laura [Hill] (Toni Warner), who I haven't worked with before, I knew it would be great fun."
Guy arrived in town in late 1992 and had a one-night stand with Meredith (Stephanie Wilkin) much to the annoyance of older brother, Chris (Michael Galvin). Guy made moves on Chris' ex fiance - Alison (Danielle Cormack) and departed. He returned early the following year and got together with Meredith. However the two broke up when it was revealed Guy had a mistress, older women - Jenny (Maggie Harper). He briefly dated HIV patient Deborah (Lisa Chappell) but ended up with good friend - Carmen (Theresa Healey). Guy cheated and they briefly broke up before Carmen fell pregnant and gave birth to daughter - Tuesday (Kelly Tate). In 1995 he was shocked to learn he was the result of an affair between father, Bruce (Ken Blackburn) and Chris' nanny. Carmen died following a truck crash in the hospital and Guy ended up leaving with Chris to seek surgery on a tumour Tuesday had developed neurologically.
