Greg Feeney is a fictional character on the New Zealand soap opera Shortland Street,[1] who was portrayed by Tim Balme for numerous recurring stints throughout the mid to late nineties.

The character arrived in early 1994 as the step brother to established character Carmen Roberts (Theresa Healey) and quickly took up the soap's badboy vacancy. A drug dealer and criminal, Greg was constantly in trouble, and causing it himself, helping harmless doctor, Chris Warner (Michael Galvin) get addicted to prescription drugs. The character would constantly appear and disappear for the 5 years following his first appearance, having a romance with Kirsty Knight (Angela Dotchin) for a majority of these stints. The character started an affair with bisexual nurse Caroline Buxton (Tandi Wright) in 1999 and ended up leaving the show in an iconic scene, with a pregnant Caroline into the sunset.
