Initially I thought the same. But it is not the Lockheed Hudson but Ventura. The Hudson had the main landing leg covered with the kind of a square "trough" what was the wheel bay door and it would be nicely noticed at the port leg if there was . The kite has the side opened doors what can be noticed at the right. What is more, the "paddle" type prop indicates the Venture plane as well. The Hudson had the different in shape props and , as memo serves, the kind wasn't used for the plane. The next detail that indictates the Lockheed Ventura is the glass "nose" that has the sguare plate at the nose tip and the horizontal strip. It was the MGs mount. Aparently the MGs were dismounted there and the holes there were stuck down with a fabric patch. The Hudson didn't had the MG mounted there so the matal reinforcement/bracing wasn't needed.

An examination of the uniforms may reveal the man at the right to be RAF or RN.
I thought they looked Army Air Force so that's why I said B-34 Lexington
Nice shots!
