Lionel Charles Jeffries (10. jun 1926 – 19. februar 2010) bio je britanski glumac, filmski scenarist i režiser. Glumačku karijeru je započeo nakon drugog svjetskog rata, gdje je kao pripadnik britanske vojske služio u Burmi 1945. Obrazovao se na RADA-i, poslije čega je nastupao na kazalištu, otkrivši talent za komične uloge. Relativno rano je oćelavio, a što je nastojao iskoristiti tako što je tumačio likove u pravilu mnogo starije od sebe. Poslije se bavio i režijom, te je 1970. snimio izuzetno popularni dječji film The Railway Children. 1980-ih je nastupio kao jedan od tri protagonista televizijskog sitkoma Tom, Dick and Harriet.
