Christopher Parker (born August 24 1983) is a British actor. He is most notable in the role of Spencer Moon in the BBC soap opera EastEnders.

He has also appeared in The Bill as an extra and as a stunt double in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and he made an appearance following his fame on EastEnders on Strictly Come Dancing, in which he was a finalist.

In November 2004 Parker hit the headlines in the UK because it was revealed he had attempted suicide by slashing his wrists. It had been alleged by a tabloid newspaper that he had paid a girl to falsely claim that she had slept with him, in an attempt to dispel alleged rumours that he might be gay. Parker was placed on extended leave by Eastenders, but his contract was terminated shortly afterwards.
