Edited sentence: Also prior to his capacity as a judge, Sydney Templeman QC was an eminent barrister.Like many men of his generation, Lord Templeman was called for service during the Second World War.Templeman was also one of the dissenting judges in the famous case of Gillick v West Norfolk and Wisbech AHA [1986] AC 112, arguing, inter alia, that sub-16-year-old girls should not be having sex and, therefore, cannot legally consent to being prescribed prescription contraceptives by a physician (thus necessitating parental consent to obtain prescription contraceptives).Templeman, who might fairly be said to be of judicially conservative inclination, also gave leading speeches upholding orthodox doctrine against calls for reform in the important land law cases of Prudential Assurance Co Ltd v London Residuary Body [1992] 2 AC 386 and Rhone v Stephens [1994] 2 AC 310
