I think it is Calliphora vicina, with its yellowy brown sclerites at the wing base, yellow anterior spiracle, black and orange bicolour gena and parafaciala and typical Calliphora antennae, grey with orange at junction of segments 2&3. Might have a red beard, but I think, with that yellow anterior spiracle, it is more likely that long pale hair on the lower occiput is picking up reflected colour from somewhere.
