Keith Jayne (born 10 December 1960) is a British actor, known for playing the title role in the 1981 television adaptation Stig of the Dump.

A slow growth rate, due to a pituitary gland problem, made Keith a target of bullies at grammar school.

To escape them, he enrolled with The Barbara Speake Stage School.

Early roles were in Rumpole of the Bailey, Angels (TV series) and a variety of Children's Film Foundation productions.

In 1974, Keith appeared as Wilfred Schoenfeld in the Upstairs Downstairs episode 'The Beastly Hun.' However, his big break happened in 1979 when he was cast as Tom Arnold, a cabin boy, in The Onedin Line.
