Christopher Cazenove (born 17 December 1943) is a British cinema, television and stage actor.

He often portrays British aristocrats, and first made his name in the early 1970s drama series, The Regiment. Other notable roles include Charlie Tyrrell in the UK series The Duchess of Duke Street and Ben Carrington in the US soap opera Dynasty. He has also appeared several times in the British drama series Judge John Deed.

Cazenove was born in Winchester, Hampshire, and educated at the Dragon School, Eton College and Oxford.

His marriage to actress Angharad Rees ended in divorce in 1994.

He has an Occitan French surname. Because of the sound and spelling of his surname, Cazenove has often been mistaken for being a descendant of Giacomo Casanova, the legendary 18th century rake and writer.
