George Alfred Carman, QC (6 October 1929 – 2 January 2001) was a leading English barrister of the 1980s and 1990s. He first came to the attention of the general public in 1979, when he successfully defended the former Liberal leader Jeremy Thorpe after he was charged with conspiracy to murder. Carman had been appointed as a Queen's Counsel (QC) eight years previously. He later became known for appearing in a series of prominent criminal cases and libel cases. ==Early life== Carman was born in Blackpool, the son of Alfred and Evelyn Carman (née Moylan). His father, a former soldier and auctioneer, briefly owned a furniture business, and his mother, the family's main breadwinner, owned a successful dress shop.〔 His parents met in Ireland; his mother was the daughter of a Waterford cattle dealer, Michael Moylan.〔No Ordinary Man, by Dominic Carman. Chapter 2〕 His uncle was the Irish hurling player, Christy Moylan. George attended St Joseph's College in Blackpool, run by Christian Brothers from Ireland, and a Roman Catholic Seminary - St Joseph's College, Upholland - where he trained as a priest, becoming head boy. Only 5'5" tall, after national service as a captain in the Royal Army Education Corps, Carman went on to study at Balliol College, Oxford from 1949. At Oxford, he befriended Jeremy Thorpe. Carman graduated in 1952 with a first-class honours degree in jurisprudence (law); future law lord Nicolas Browne-Wilkinson achieved a first in law at Oxford that year.
