Odd Ambassador

Great shots, more please gyp. But what's that Ambassador with the red wings ? I'm sure none survived to be painted in the BEA 'red square' scheme which did feature red wings, so whose is that ? Never seen a shot like that before.
Yes, I'm puzzled by the Ambassador. Dan Air started using them in 1960, did they have red wings? Last service with BEA was in 1958, before the 'red square' scheme. Or has the photo been retouched?
