Christopher Mitchell (21 May 1947 – 22 February 2001) was a British actor most notable for his role in the BBC sitcom It Ain't Half Hot Mum as Gunner Nigel 'Parky' Parkin. His film credits include Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush (1967), This, That and the Other (1969), The Sex Thief (1973) and What's Up Superdoc! (1978).

He appeared in two episodes of Only Fools and Horses (May the Force Be With You; 1983 and To Hull and Back; 1985), playing policeman Terry Hoskins. He died from cancer of the liver and other alcohol-related complications at the age of 53, a month before his father, actor Norman Mitchell, and in the same year as his fellow gunner and fellow Only Fools and Horses actor Kenneth MacDonald, who died of a heart attack aged 50.
