Shortland Street is an New Zealand television soap opera. It was first broadcast on 25 May 1992 and currently airs on television network TVNZ 2. The following is a list of characters that appeared on the show in 2015 by order of first appearance. All characters are introduced by the shows executive producer Simon Bennett. The 24th season of Shortland Street began airing on 19 January 2015 and concluded on 15 December 2015.
Victoria "Tor" Anderton, played by Laura Thompson, made her first appearance on 11 March 2015. Thompson secured the role shortly after graduating from drama school.
Victoria arrives at Shortland Street Hospital as part of a surgical exchange program. She reconnects with old-colleague Boyd Rolleston (Sam Bunkall). Victoria's father dies, and after initial sparks with Garrett Whitley (Spencer Falls), Victoria develops feelings for married father Mo Hannah (Jarod Rawiri) after treating his daughter Pixie Hannah (Thomasin McKenzie). At the end of the year, Drew McCaskill (Ben Barrington) is shot by an anonymous shooter. It is later revealed that the shooter is Victoria, who is angry at Drew for sleeping with and dumping her earlier in the year. After framing Mo's wife Margaret Hannah (Debbie Newby-Ward) for the attempted murder of Drew on top of her actual fraud, Victoria starts a relationship with Mo, much to the dislike of Mo's son Curtis (Jayden Daniels). When Margaret returns, Victoria tries to kill her by blowing up her caravan while in the midst of faking a pregnancy to keep Mo in a relationship.
After failing to kill Margaret, Victoria gets Curtis sent to prison by drugging his food. When Curtis passes a routine drug test with the help of his brother Jack, Victoria's plans begin to unravel. Ali Karim (Tane Williams-Accra), who at the time was staying with the Hannahs, reveals that Victoria had not gone to work at Central as she claimed to have done while the Hannahs were visiting Margaret. Victoria takes a syringe full of Drew's blood from a discarded blood bag and injects it onto Curtis' hospital scrubs to frame Curtis for the murder, but again fails to get Curtis in trouble. Harper Whitley (Ria Vandervis) becomes suspicious of Victoria after noticing some odd patterns with her behaviour. After being confronted by Harper, Victoria snaps and tells Harper that Drew deserved it having slept with her and discarding her. After admitting her crimes to Mo, Victoria takes off in a car to avoid arrest. Coming across two children, Victoria swerves and crashes into a tree, succumbing to her injuries upon admittance to hospital.
