John Salthouse (born 16 June 1951) is a British actor and producer. He is perhaps best known for creating the role of Tony in Mike Leigh's Abigail's Party and DI Roy Galloway in The Bill from 1984 to 1987. He has also appeared in EastEnders, Miracles Take Longer and in films.

John Salthouse had previously been a professional footballer until injury had forced him to retire. He had played for Crystal Palace in the 1960s, a fact which he drew on in playing the sullen Tony in Abigail's Party. He also appeared in the early series of the Sky One soap opera Dream Team as the club's academy coach.
