Elisabeth Turhapuro is a Uuno Turhapuro character, part of a cast who has appears in all Uuno Turhapuro films and tv-series. The exception to this was the film Uuno Turhapuron veli, where the main character Uuno Turhapuro played by Vesa-Matti Loiri. Uuno debuted in 1973 in a sketch on the Spede Show, as half of a still nameless couple who had a premature argument about how to use their lottery win. (This sketch was recycled in the film Rautakauppias Uuno Turhapuro - presidentin vävy).
Elisabeth Turhapuro is only daughter of Councillor Tuura, the richest man in Finland, and the sharp, fiery and snapping wife of Uuno Turhapuro who has no sense of humor and often gets into arguments with his wife.
[edit] Marriage
Once Uuno and Elizabeth have married their marriage runs into trouble. However, although Elisabeth has, in many of her films, threatened her husband with divorce, she had has always forgiven him his flaws and defects and the couple has remained married. Her husband, Uuno, believes that she is "withered", and will flirt with younger woman, which is often the reason for their marital disputes. The real reason Uuno married Elizabeth is because her father, Councillor Tuura, is the richest man in Finland and Uuno wants to inherit his wealth when he dies.
