Name the Stars

The programme on the table tells us this is a charity match between a Television All Stars XI and a Charlton Old Boys XI (and they do look old) but can anyone name them?

    I thought the star third left might be Gerry Marsden of the Pacemakers.

    Welsh and Castle but not sure on any others

    Actor, singer and comedian - I'll always remember him as Parky in The Long Good Friday

    Thanks Bob!
    I’ve just tweeted the photo to Roy’s son Ben who I follow. He’s lovely. In case he knows who the other c’lebs are or hasn’t seen the photo before ♥️

    Jimmy Trotter on the left, and possibly Max Bygraves next to him?

    Agreed.

    Looks like an old boxer - I was thinking Brian London but not sure.

    I think you are correct re Max Bygraves 

    It’s the blokes either side of Roy Castle that I have no idea about

    Yes!!
    Although second thoughts - Freddie died in 1965 and he was only 46 - this guy looks much older.

    Definitely a boxer though.

    I thought he looked like an old version of Paul Gascoigne.

    The guy far right has Charlton shorts on, not TV All Stars shorts (which have a dark trim...).
