George Christopher Pepys Cutts (29 June 1914 – 4 April 1974) was, from 1964 to 1974, the fifth Bishop of Buckingham in the Church of England.

Pepys was educated at Winchester College and Oriel College, Oxford[1] and studied for ordination at Ripon College Cuddesdon before a curacy at St John the Divine's Kennington.[2] After wartime service in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve (RNVR) he was successively Rector of Hartfield, Sussex,[3] Vicar of St Mark's Portsea and, before his ordination to the episcopate, Rural Dean of Liverpool.[4] He died in post in 1974. He was survived by his wife, Elizabeth (d. 2009), who later married another Church of England Bishop, Michael Mann.[5]
