Nora McDonald and George Venturi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nora McDonald and George Venturi are characters from Life With Derek, a Canadian-produced show. Nora MacDonald and George Venturi are played by Joy Tanner & John Ralston.
[edit] Nora McDonald
Divorced for five years from a successful corporate lawyer, Nora has never really cared that much about material possessions anyway. Prior to her marriage to George, Nora raised her two daughters, Casey and Lizzie, on her own.
Nora is a partner in a firm that specializes in window coverings. When Nora goes to work she looks very professional and put together which is a contrast to her at-home style which more relaxed. She adores her new husband though sometimes finds his refusal to take things seriously exasperating.
Nora is a business woman in her own right, and a feminist who believes in raising strong daughters - although she got a bit more than she bargained for with Casey.
[edit] George Venturi
George is a legal aid lawyer. George is a laid-back kind of guy and plays guitar and does home renovation, both fairly badly. He also likes to joke around, cook, and watch sports on TV with his sons.
Prior to marrying Nora, George raised his three children; Derek, Edwin and Marti, on his own. It is unknown why he is no longer with his first wife or why he has permanent custody over the kids, but his first wife's name was Abby.
