Jeremy Spencer (born Jeremie Spencer; 27 June 1939)[1] is an English former rugby union international.[2]

A Guildford Grammar School product, Spencer was capped once by England, selected from Harlequins to play as scrum-half against Wales at Twickenham in the 1966 Five Nations.[3] He later spent time on the Basque coast, playing rugby for French first division club Saint-Jean-de-Luz, while also working as a school teacher.[4]

Outside of rugby, Spencer was an artist, musician and self described beatnik, whose residences included an old air raid shelter in Ripley, a double decker bus and an engine shed.[5]
