The following is a list of characters that first appeared in the New Zealand soap opera Shortland Street in 2011, by order of first appearance.
Peter Morrison was Tracey's (Sarah Thomson) second oldest brother. He arrived in January 2011 when he learned Tracey's fiance – Scotty (Kiel McNaughton) had viciously attacked her. He encouraged her to end it with Scotty and ended up leaving back to the United Kingdom when Scotty was diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Roimata Ngatai was the young Maori nurse who fell for TK Samuels (Benjamin Mitchell). Despite initially being a minor character, the character got a positive reception and soon was one of the central characters in the soaps 2011 feature-length episode.
Jill Kingsbury was the "Beautiful, energetic and outgoing" nurse who was best friends with Roimata Ngatai (Shavaughn Ruakere). The character was axed in late 2011.
Jill arrived in February. She had previously dated Daniel Potts (Ido Drent) whilst overseas and planned to win him back but with Sophie's (Kimberley Crossman) intervention, she ended up with Hunter McKay (Lee Donoghue). Hunter however slept with Paige Munroe (Rachel Foreman) and it turned out Jill had spent time in prison for armed robbery and assault. The presence of her ex-boyfriend – Regan Ames (George Mason), who had caused her to go to prison, made Jill drift towards Hunter's middle aged father, Callum McKay (Peter Mochrie). The relationship was highly controversial and many, including Hunter, suspected Jill of being after Callum's money. Jill and Callum soon realised Hunter had a serious drug problem and when Jill and Daniel confronted him whilst he robbed a pharmacy, Jill was fatally stabbed accidentally by a security guard.
