Healey, Jenkins, and who? Blackpool 1945

In this picture from the 1945 Labour Party Conference in Blackpool we see Major Denis Healey, Captain Roy Jenkins, and three other delegates. Who are the other three? They look familiar but I can't quite place them. Thank you, DuncanHill (talk) 22:48, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To me it looks like Hugh Dalton in the middle and Ernest Bevin on the right, though it's hard to positively identify Bevin since he's looking away. Maybe it's Herbert Morrison. I'm unsure about the woman. --Antiquary (talk) 08:40, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Labour's 1945 female MPs are shown here. Not sure it helps much though. Alansplodge (talk) 14:16, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it might be Ellen Wilkinson. As it happens, she was my Mother's Godmother, but she died almost ten years before I was born, so I have no direct memories to draw on. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 94.2.67.173 (talk) 23:49, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
