Just updating my last in the interests of accuracy. It seems that the Royal Hussars (amalgamation of the 10th and the 11th, as already mentioned) may have since amalgamated with the 14/20th King's Royal Hussars to form The King's Royal Hussars. When regiments amalgamate they like to keep parts of their previous uniforms, hence the officer from the hussars is wearing the collar badge of the 10th Hussars, the red trousers of the 11th Hussars and the cap badge of the 14/20th Hussars. I can't identify the officer with the yellow stripe down his trousers.
