Lieutenant Green (Seymour Griffiths) is a fictional character in the Supermarionation television series Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons. He is of Trinidadian origin, and as well as being the only non-white male on Cloudbase, he is the only officer to hold the rank of lieutenant. He is an expert in computer programming and electronics.
In the series, Green spends most of his time in the Cloudbase control room. He assists Colonel White in the execution of missions by accessing data and radio links at a large supercomputer, which he operates from a movable chair. At White's command he can activate the control room's display screen or speak on the base's public address system. Green rarely leaves Cloudbase, though he constantly mentions how he would like to meet Captain Black face-to-face. Other Cloudbase personnel occupy his chair to assist Colonel White whenever the Lieutenant is absent.
Cy Grant provided the voice of Lieutenant Green.

Famous quotes containing the word green:
“Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car,
And driven the hamadryad from the wood
To seek a shelter in some happier star?
Hast thou not torn the naiad from her flood,
The elfin from the green grass, and from me
The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree?”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
