Gregory Daniel "Greg" Davies (born 14 May 1968) is a Welsh stand-up comedian and actor known for his roles as Greg in We Are Klang, Mr Phil Gilbert in The Inbetweeners and Ken Thompson in Cuckoo, as well as for his guest appearances in Mock the Week, Would I Lie to You? and Fast and Loose. He has performed on the BBC's Live at the Apollo series.

Davies was born in St Asaph, Denbighshire. His parents lived in England at the time, but his Welsh father drove his mother Pauline across the border to make sure he was born in Wales. He grew up in Wem, a small market town in the north of Shropshire, the county which he regards as his home. He also has a sister.

Davies was educated at Thomas Adams School and Brunel University, where he studied English and drama. Prior to embarking on a career in comedy, he had taught secondary school drama and English for 13 years at Langleywood School in Slough, Orleans Park School in Twickenham, southwest London, and Sandhurst School in Sandhurst.

In 2005 Davies played a caricature of cricketer W. G. Grace in a series of adverts for Channel 4's television coverage of The Ashes.
