George Sands

In the prequel’s narrative George is on holiday in Scotland with his fiancé Julia. One day George decides to go for a walk, while Julia stays at the hotel. Outside he meets Andy, who joins him. The pair is outside until it is dark, and they suddenly hear a wolf howling. The wolf turns out to be a werewolf, who attacks George and Andy. Andy is killed by the werewolf while George survives. However, George is scratched by the werewolf which turns him into a werewolf too.[1]

After George is infected with the werewolf curse he flees from home and leaves his fiancée Julia without telling her why. He moves to Bristol[2] and starts to work in a hospital[3] as an attendant. After never hearing from George again his family and fiancée Julia believe George is dead.[4] In Bristol George hides that he is a werewolf. He wants to learn how to manage his monthly transformations, so he decides to move into a new home with his friend Mitchell, a vampire who is trying to stay clean from blood. They soon find a nice house, but as soon as they move into their new home they figure out that the ghost Annie is already living in the house.[5] At first George doesn’t like Annie and wants her gone, but they get closer together as time passes. During his work at the hospital George meets his former fiancée Julia again, who is a patient there. When George hears that Julia’s new fiancé Peter beats her, George threatens to kill him, but is stopped by Annie. Julia finally figures out that George is a werewolf, seeing him transform in front of her, but isn’t able to cope with this and leaves him.[2] Meanwhile the three housemates George, Annie and Mitchell have grown closer.[4]

While living with Mitchell and Annie, George tries to manage being a werewolf. When the werewolf Tully arrives, George is happy to find someone offering to help him manage his condition. However, George soon learns that Tully is the werewolf who infected him.[6] This discovery leads to Tully and George parting company. At the hospital George meets a nurse named Nina and a romantic relationship starts between them.[7] Through all of this, Mitchell’s evil infector Herrick interferes in the trio’s lives.[8] In the end, George transforms into a werewolf and kills Herrick. While he transforms, he also scratches Nina.[9]

The killing of Herrick unleashes a side of George that he had never shown before. He is looking for a fight and gets involved with a couple of new vampires. George doesn’t see that his girlfriend Nina is feeling bad, a result of him scratching her when transforming into a werewolf. Instead of taking care of Nina, George flirts with the vampire Daisy. When Nina finally reveals her condition to him this brings George back to reality.[9] Nina finally leaves George and he has a hard time getting over this.[10] George gets a new job[11] teaching at a language school where he meets Sam, and falls in love with her.[12] George plans to move into a new flat with Sam and her daughter Molly, but those plans are put aside when Nina returns. Nina tells George, Mitchell and Annie about an organisation called CenSSA.[13] She tells George that this organisation helps him to get rid of his condition once and for all. George is sceptical about this and decides not to join Nina. Instead, he goes to a parents meeting at school, along with Sam. There he starts transforming into a werewolf and manages only to get away within the last second. This makes George realise that being a werewolf is endangering the people in his life, and he decides to go to the CenSSA organisation along with Annie and Nina to finally get rid of his condition.[14] Finally George, Annie and Nina figure out that Kemp, CenSSA's leader, can’t keep what he has promised and that a lot of werewolves are killed during his experiments. For Annie however it is already to late. She is sent to hell by Kemp. Later George, Mitchell and Nina move into a new home in Barry.[15]

After a long break up Nina and George are together again. They start a new life in a house in Barry. Mitchell is living in the same house and saves Annie from Purgatory,[16] who moves into the friends house.[17] Nina becomes pregnant.[18] For the first time since becoming a werewolf George sees his parents, who thought he was dead.[19] George visits them along with Nina, realises that they have broken up and brings them back together again.[20] Meanwhile Mitchell has killed again. He asks George to kill him and put an end to his life. In the end George kills his friend Mitchell because of mercy.[21][22]

George is devastated his love Nina has been beaten to death by vampires, only shortly after she has been given birth to their daughter Eve.[23] George spends most of the next month sitting on guard beside his daughter's crib, determined to protect her but emotionally shattered. To save his daughter from the vampires George partially transforms into a werewolf during a non full moon night. He does this by tricking his body into thinking that there is a full moon, granting him the strength needed to kill the vampires who threaten Eve.[24] This saves his daughter but George also dies during the process, as the partial transformation gave him the enhanced strength without giving him the enhanced healing he needed to cope with the damage he was inflicting on himself, his last words being to ask Annie and fellow werewolf Tom MacNair to act as Eve's guardians, which they do.[25][23] At the end of the series George is joined by his friends Annie, Mitchell, Nina and baby Eve in the afterlife.[26] A reunion scene with the friends is never shown on television.

Nina and George are very close to each other. After becoming werewolves they both support each other a lot managing their condition and staying close to humanity.[27] Nina has a calming influence of George, even as a werewolf.[28] Nina is able to rip through the barrier that George has built up because of his own lack of confidence and the insecurity about himself.[29]

George Sands and John Mitchell have a deep friendship. They support each other to control their supernatural urges.[5]

When George meets Annie for the first time he doesn’t like her and wants her to leave. However, the house mates get closer to each other very soon and start to develop a friendship.[2]
