Comments by "Big Blue" (@bigblue6917) on "The Vickers Wellesley – Unheralded Hero of a Forgotten War" video.
At 3:42 there is a group of figures in the bottom right corner. I believe the figure on the left raising his right hand in greeting to the man with his back to us is Edward, Prince of Wales. Interestingly, many of the people in the photograph are wearing black arm bands which would indicate they are in mourning. So I do wonder if this was taken in January 1936 after George V had died. Which would make Edward King Edward VIII. First time I saw the Wellesley I was very much put in mind of a flying cloths peg. One which hung the Italian out to dry.
