Richard Cameron Wattis (25 February 1912 – 1 February 1975) was an English actor.

After leaving the family business, Wattis became an actor. His debut was with Croydon Repertory Theatre, and he made many stage appearances in the West End in London. His first appearance in a film was A Yank at Oxford (1938), but war service interrupted his career as an actor. He served as a second lieutenant in the Small Arms Section of Special Operations Executive at Station VI during World War II (James Bond author, Ian Fleming worked in the same section). He is best known for his appearances, wearing his thick-rimmed round spectacles, in British comedies of the 1950s and 1960s, often as a "Man from the Ministry" or similar character. He was also involved as the secretary to Lord Scrumptious in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Such appearances included the St Trinian's films (The Belles of St Trinian's, Blue Murder at St Trinian's, and The Great St Trinian's Train Robbery) as Manton Bassett, a civil servant who was the Deputy Director of Schools in the Ministry of Education, where he was often seen frowning and expressing indignation at the outrageous behaviour of other characters. To American audiences, Wattis is probably best known for his performance as the British civil servant Northbrook in The Prince and the Showgirl (1957). He broke from this typecasting in his later films, such as his starring role in Games That Lovers Play.

Wattis's other films included Hobson's Choice, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Carry On Spying, The Colditz Story, Dentist on the Job, Very Important Person, The Happiest Days of Your Life, and The Longest Day. He also appeared on television, including a long-running role in Sykes, and appearances in Danger Man, The Prisoner, The Goodies, Hancock's Half Hour, and Father, Dear Father. From 1957 to 1958, he appeared as Peter Jamison in three episodes of the American sitcom Dick and the Duchess.

理查德·卡梅隆·沃蒂斯（1912年2月25日-1975年2月1日）是一位英国演员。

离开家族企业后，瓦蒂斯成为了一名演员。他的处女作是在克罗伊登话剧团，他在伦敦西区多次登台演出。他第一次出演电影是《牛津的佬》（1938 年），但战争服务中断了他作为演员的职业生涯。二战期间，他曾在第六站特种作战执行官的轻武器科担任少尉（詹姆斯·邦德的作者伊恩·弗莱明在同一科工作）。他最出名的是他在 1950 年代和 1960 年代的英国喜剧中戴着厚框圆框眼镜的露面，通常作为“部里的人”或类似角色。他还参与了 Chitty Chitty Bang Bang 的 Scrumptious 勋爵的秘书。

这些出场包括圣特里尼安的电影（圣特里尼安的美女、圣特里尼安的蓝色谋杀案和圣特里尼安的火车大劫案），饰演曼顿·巴塞特，一名公务员，曾担任教育部学校副主任，在那里他经常被看到皱着眉头，对其他角色的无耻行为表示愤慨。对于美国观众来说，沃蒂斯最出名的可能是他在《王子与歌舞女郎》（1957）中饰演英国公务员诺斯布鲁克的表演。他在后来的电影中打破了这种类型化，例如他在《恋人玩的游戏》中的主演。

沃蒂斯的其他电影包括《霍布森的选择》、《Chitty Chitty Bang Bang》、《Carry On Spying》、《The Colditz Story》、《Dentist on the Job》、《非常重要的人》、《你生命中最快乐的日子》和《最长的一天》。他还出现在电视上，包括在赛克斯的长期角色，以及出现在《危险人物》、《囚徒》、《好东西》、《汉考克的半小时》和《父亲，亲爱的父亲》中。从1957年到1958年，他在美国情景喜剧《迪克与公爵夫人》的三集中饰演彼得·贾米森。
