David Battley (1935-2003) was a British actor who specialized in concise and gloomy roles. He was one of the most known (or, at least, most familiar) [[DeadpanSnarker deadpan snarkers]] of his time, even though he never had any noteworthy leading roles. (He was, however, much in demand as a character actor and comic stooge.)

He was the father of actress Zoe S. Battley, and died of a heart attack in 2003. He was about five foot eight, and one hell of a juggler.
