Might be the angle of the photo, but the 'O' type appears a bit short in the tread department.
Blue Foden looks a bit of a beast.

The first photo looks like a Jones KL44 crane on the right; the second photo Starr Roadways, they were once in Vulcan Road, Bilston (which is between West Bromwich and Wolverhampton) don't think they are around any longer, when I left school and started an apprenticeship as a truck mechanic, it was one of their Seddon Atkinson 200 series trucks which I first worked on.
Yes Pete he does have a similar appearance to the said Mr Holder; somewhere I have seen a photo of Noddy advertising Hy-mac when they were made at Ettingshall, Bilston under NEI.

I can't think the reverse bucket would have a huge amount of push and, from the photo, bucket articulation may be limited. The bucket linkage does look to be different/modified from the standard.
The trailer has King on the neck.

DB 990 Implimatic I think. Copper don't look too impressed.
I like the 360 in blue/white livery, is it a Priestman?

If a LandRover doesn't leak oil, it's run out.
