Margaret Hannah

Margaret Hannah first appeared in late July 2015, portrayed by Debbie Newby-Ward. Margaret is Newby-Ward's second role in the show, having previously portrayed Nicola Halley in 1996.

Whilst Mo, Pixie, and Jack lived in Ferndale, Margaret was the primary money earner, living in Australia with Curtis. Mo announced that Margaret planned to return when Pixie was diagnosed with cancer but was arrested for embezzlement, which the family assumed she was covering for Curtis. In July she arrived to Ferndale having been released from jail. She landed a job at the hospital but the stress of Pixie's cancer and subsequent death lead her to start embezzling money from the plastic surgery clinic. Victoria Anderton (Laura Thompson) and Drew McCaskill (Ben Barrington) discovered her fraud and when Drew was found with several gunshots in his back, Margaret was the prime suspect. She fled Ferndale, only increasing the suspicion on her, leaving Mo and Victoria to start a relationship. She returned in May, when Mo, Jack and Curtis are on a camping trip and decided to turn herself in for embezzlement.

By the time Margaret was out on parole a year later, Jack managed to help her move into a rental house as she started a new job as a floral assistant. She had yet to formally divorce from Mo Hannah, who is engaged to Kate Nathan. While Mo resents Jack for helping Margaret, Kate reminded Mo that Margaret is still Jack's biological mother. After she was nearly molested by Jim, her landlord, she moved into Mo's house, but as they were to confirm their divorce, they had goodbye sex which Mo later confessed to Kate, so Margaret left Auckland, while Kate moved out with Blue.

Drew McCaskill

Drew McCaskill made his first appearance on 28 July 2015 as a new surgeon at Shortland Street. First seeming to be a shameless flirt with no respect for women, Drew would form a close friendship with Kylie Brown after Kylie was assigned his nurse in the Plastics unit at the hospital. Drew would become unsettled when his ex-wife Virginia would crash her way back into Drew's life in late 2015. After seemingly sending her packing, Virginia would start stalking Drew in September but was quickly sent packing once the two began talking and they finally split up on better terms.

Drew was shot twice during the 2015 Cliffhanger Episode by angry father Gareth Hutchins after Drew performed breast surgery of his daughter Millie. Later in the episode Drew was shot again by a mystery shooter, revealed to be Victoria Anderton in 2016.

Drew came out of his coma and was on strong pain relief early in 2016, and discharged from Shortland Street Hospital.

In March 2016 he botched Kylie's mastectomy. In June–July, 2016, he is covered Boyd Rolleston's Fentich Polymer trial and spy accusations, and in July 2016, it was revealed that he has a younger brother, Cam, a vastly experienced chef, however, given Cam's history with cocaine addiction and money laundering, Cam was demoted to a cafe staff at the IV cafe, until he had proven clean three months later. Drew would eventually be joined in the plastics unit by Chris's son Finn, who was also an experienced surgeon. After a long, tenuous period of tension, Drew and Harper would get together and become engaged in late 2016-early 2017.

Drew and Harper would take in Harper's wayward cousin Ashley after Ashley accidentally killed her mother in a crash in May 2017, with Drew and Ashley clashing. While they reconciled in June. Drew became the acting CEO of Shortland Street after Chris Warner is no longer capable to carry out his duties due to his leukemia treatments. Drew fell out with Harper after she aborted pregnancy while he was out on a medical conference without his knowledge, and proceeded to have an affair with Kylie. After Frank found out about the affair with Kylie, Frank also set out to sabotage him. He and Boyd are both trying to keep Ezra, who came from a cult-like community led by Ezra's father, and they turned out to be TK's relatives. By the time Luke died, Drew reconciled with Harper after she had a scare of losing her second child by miscarriage.

After their intersex child, Billie, was born, he was unable to fight off tax fraud charges, and was forced to sell 40% off shares in IV Bar and cafe to Damo Johnson and Leanne Johnson-Black. He currently serves 1-year home detention, and is pending reinstatement to resume work.

In 2018, he was also the main star of the spinoff: Drew's Christmas Holiday, a TVNZ On Demand-only mini series.

In 2019, Boyd and Drew's fitness rivalry starts up, and they begin to have tensions, but they ease off when Boyd starts dating Kelly-Anne, Damo's sister. Kylie kisses Drew and Harper suspects he is cheating on her, and when Damo teaches Drew about installing spy cameras in his house, he finds Harper and TK inside his house and then Drew accuses Harper of cheating, but he was actually surprised with a surprise birthday party. In July, Drew and Louis King start smoking marijuana, and Drew gets arrested for driving under the influence. And in September, Drew does a study of medicinal marijuana and hires Louis King and his mate River, to help him. When Harper finds out, she dumps him and she is diagnosed with Addison's disease. Drew keeps trying to win her back but then from Harper's irritation of Addison's, she tries to get custody over Billy, and the two have a blow. Harper suffers a seizure and is discovered to have a tumor. When the tumor is taken out, Drew and Harper reconcile. In December, Harper treats Drew to a Christmas holiday to Bali.

In 2020, Drew's mother returns, and she starts treating patients with "healing oils" and she reveals to Drew and Harper that she has stage 3 breast cancer.

A second spin off is released on TVNZ OnDemand about Drew and Harper's holiday to Bali and it is called: "Shortland Street Summer Holiday"

Ali Karim

Ali Karim made his first appearance on 22 September 2015 as the new ambulance recruit at the hospital where he meets Lucy Rickman after bringing a patient into ED, after which he would injure his leg and end up in hospital himself later that day. After moving in with Dayna and Lucy, Lucy and Ali would end up in a relationship. In order to pay for a traditional wedding, Ali would take up an extra job as a Piggyback driver with his friend Curtis Hannah. But after Curtis was sent to jail, the business failed as he was forced out of business by rival companies.

Ali's relationship with Lucy would cause many problems with his family, his father disowning him and tension arising between Ali and his mother, who are both traditional Muslims of Tunisian descent. Eventually, however, Ali would gain their blessing and he and Lucy would wed, with Lucy becoming pregnant late in 2016. Ali would sustain a head injury in the 2016 finale and end up in a wheelchair. In his recovery, Ali would exhibit explosive, erratic behaviour due to brain trauma, frightening Lucy. However, with the help of Frank Connelly and new flatmate Esther Samuels, Ali would make a full recovery in 2017. Lucy and Ali would find themselves caught in traffic during the Ferndale Volcano Eruption. Lucy gave birth in the car to their daughter but unfortunately would suffer from a ruptured uterus while giving birth. Rushed to Shortland Street, Lucy would find herself in the care of Dr Finn Connelly. While appearing to stabilize at first, Lucy tragically died only hours after giving birth. Upon learning the news, Ali became withdrawn and angry, and stopped bonding with his daughter, and refused to name her. Six months after her death, he finally confessed that he has feelings for Dawn, but Dawn, who had broken off her relationship with Curtis Hannah and tried a brief same-sex relationship, she decided to stay celibate. However, after her stint as a member of The Followers, she managed to reconcile with Ali and they finally became a couple.

Late in 2018, Ali and Dawn bought the old house with Jack and Lincoln, but by Christmas time, he started suffering dizzy spells from overworking, and on the 2018 cliffhanger, he hid his brain cancer diagnosis (astrocytoma) from Dawn, but it is unclear if it was related to the 2016 head injury.

In the first episode of 2019, he had a second grand mal seizure when Kylie admitted killing Dylan, but blamed Ali for trying to resuscitate him. After the seizure, he lost all recollection of events in the last 2 weeks, including Kylie's admission of guilt hours prior. He hid the diagnosis again, and drove the ambulance to retrieve Damo's engagement ring, where the ambulance hit a woman. As he drove with a known medical condition, he is facing criminal and costs for damages, and is likely to be stood down for his roles. However, his memory has glitched, until the day before his passing, when he remembered the full details of Kylie's murder of Dylan, but he also hinted that he would be meeting Lucy, when he mentioned about Rachel being drunk at their wedding. Kylie attempted to kill Ali by Fentanyl overdose, but failed when Dawn and Lulu returned home. Ali died in his sleep, possibly due to subcranial hemorrhage or organ failure.

In July 2022, Ali appears to Damo in a dream.
