That is because it apparently was named differently depending on what chassis it was built: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Duple_Viceroy .

It was initially launched on lightweight front-engined chassis, but it was latterly built on mid-engined and heavyweight chassis as well.

I don't think any of them match the white subject coach, but a couple may match the blue one on left. Or not, as there's probably lots of archive footage of lots of different coaches from this troubled time.
