Sir Bruce Warner is a fictional character in the long running New Zealand soap Shortland Street.
He was married to Lady Margot Warner, has two sons Dr. Chris Warner and Dr. Guy Warner and one daughter Amanda Warner.
He originally faked his daughter's death to keep the knowledge of her disability from her mother. At birth, doctors pronounced her so severely disabled she would require a life of full-time care. His decision to send Amanda away was a sign of the times when people thought differently toward disabilities.
After informing Chris and Guy that he had cancer, Bruce decided to buy the clinic from Michael McKenna who had decided to moved away from Ferndal and try to give his marriage to Alex another go. Michael greed to the sale but cheated Bruce out of the management contract meaning Bruce would have to own Shortland Street as a silent partner.
In 1995 Sir Bruce died from cancer.
