Kenneth Griffith (12 October 1921 25 June 2006) was a Welsh actor and documentary filmmaker. He was born Kenneth Reginald Griffiths in Tenby, Pembrokeshire, Wales. Six months after his birth his parents split up and left Tenby, leaving Kenneth with his paternal grandparents, Emily and Ernest, who immediately adopted him. A lively rugby union scrum-half, he attended the local Wesleyan Methodist chapel three times every Sunday. Griffiths passed the Eleven plus and attended Greenhill Grammar School, where he met English literature teacher Evelyn Ward, who recognised his writing and acting talent. Before leaving school, his headmaster J.T. Griffth suggested that he drop the English "s" from his name (an anglicisation).
