Charles Arthur Brittenden (23 October 1924 – 25 April 2015) was a British newspaper editor.
Brittenden worked as a journalist at the "Yorkshire Evening Post", then rose to become Assistant Editor of the "Daily Express" by the early 1960s. In 1966, he moved to become Editor of the "Daily Mail". He held the post until 1971, when the paper merged with the "Daily Sketch", and he was replaced by "Sketch" editor David English. Brittenden later moved
run-up and action. Dick Brittenden wrote: "he bowled from a run of a few paces. He began each time by standing stiffly to attention, poised for an appreciable little interval. Then he moved in and bowled with one of the strangest of actions – no left arm, and his chest quite square to the batsman."
His younger brother Arthur also played as a pace bowler for Wellington and Central Districts in the same period.
