I think the car's an AC Cobra, the people I'm not sure, maybe Pearl Carr and Teddy Johnson
I might be wrong on all counts, not sure about that hinge.

Thanks Gibbo, I said a clue with a guess thanks for joining in. Not an AC cobra

This is where the screenshots were taken from. (the event) and the year is particularly relevant to the lady and gentleman in the picture.

A little bit of trivia to enjoy a bit of a a delve with, well done if you get this straight away.
Two whosthisthen One whatsthisthen
Get one you get the others. Clues to follow should it prove too difficult. Have a go.

Who is the Lady Who is the Man and What is the car

Drawing a blank so far, too difficult? Clue with every guess. and I'll give you a little more of the car.

There should be enough knowledge in the household to link 1953 with the the man in particular who James has just nailed!

I'll settle for the car!!

[Hell Razor5543]

I thought I recognised Sir Edmund, so I did a Google search and found this (which will ask you to do the usual 'cookie' bit);

Spot on James did you find the Pathe Video?

Bit about a R4 recreation here

Before the company folded, plans were drawn up for a Jupiter Mk2. It’s design shared much with the Jupiter R4 but it never entered into production. However in 2008, Jowett enthusiast and restorer Allan Fishburn acquired the drawings for the Mk2 and began building a one off Jupiter Mk2.

Is the car Italian?

No not Italian Mick, not a shred of Italian in it, but a canny bit of American under the bonnet.

Next guess from anyone and the full car pic will be revealed, I already put the lights on the appropriate thread

When I first saw those lights my thoughts said Corvette but I couldn't find one that matched. I found a similar Mustang but I wasn't convinced and hence wondered if it was a Lancia or Alfa but I ran out of time to investigate - needn't bother now!! So if only to generate the full picture how about a Studebaker?
