Lucy Griffiths, (24 April 1919 -- 29 September 1982), was a British character actress, often TypeCast as a [[ScatterbrainedSenior dotty old woman]].

She appeared in small roles in Film/HammerHorror films including ''Film/TheTwoFacesOfDrJekyll'', ''Film/ThePhantomOfTheOpera1962'', and ''Film/FrankensteinAndTheMonsterFromHell''.

She also made brief appearances in six ''Film/CarryOn'' films, with her most memorable roles coming as [[AbhorrentAdmirer Miss Morris]] in ''Film/CarryOnDoctor'' and the old woman [[StuffBlowingUp whose headphones explode while she is wearing them]] in ''Film/CarryOnAgainDoctor''. She also appeared in a DeletedScene of ''Film/CarryOnLoving'', and appeared in two other films also produced and directed by Creator/PeterRogersAndGeraldThomas, those being ''Film/PleaseTurnOver'' and ''Nurse on Wheels''.

On the small screen, she was a frequent bit player in sitcoms, popping up in ''Series/DoctorInTheHouse'', ''Series/PleaseSir'', ''Series/OnTheBuses'', ''Series/AllCreaturesGreatAndSmall1978'', and ''Series/MindYourLanguage''.

She died at the age of 63.

Not to be mistaken for Creator/LucyGriffiths, the British actress of the same name born in 1986.
