Glyn Worsnip (2 September 1938 - 7 June 1996) was a British radio and television presenter. He was most famous for his appearances on That's Life! (where he was teamed with Kieran Prendiville from 1973 to 1978) and on Nationwide.

He developed the brain disease cerebellar ataxia in 1986. As a result, his speech became slurred and the BBC fired him in 1987 following complaints from listeners.

He made the programme, A Lone Voice, about his struggle with the disease, which would claim his life in 1996 at the age of 57, and which was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in March 1988.
