Is that a Bentley 2nd up on the right?

Don't think so.
I can see a couple of Ford 100Es, a pre-Farina Austin Cambridge and the one on the left is definitely an MG Magnette ZB Varitone - but my eyes aren't as good as they used to be...

A40 Somerset is a good suggestion, or it could be an A70 Hereford. The car next to it (white and grey) looks to me like a Mk. I Zephyr Zodiac. The black car in the background is definitely a Popular/Prefect/Anglia.

Can't quite make out the 'nose' - possibly Daimler Conquest (its the two tone that makes me wonder) - first on right is 100e or variant of that - there's another one in there - early A40 or similar.

Don't think it is a Daimler. The Conquest bonnet line was more horizontal and the side windows had a quarter light and chrome surrounds. Would think Austin of some sort

Nearly a Daimler Conquest. It's actually a Lanchester Leda, I reckon. Similar body, same factory, simpler grille compared with the Daimler.

Probably the most inappropriate name for a car ever - excepting Mitsubishi Charisma
