Vince has suggested I send this in again under the identification forum. I believe it to be the larvae of a Striped Wainscot moth. It was found in grass tussocks on High and Over in Sussex whilst looking for Wall larvae. It was a vey lively beast, not keeping still at all. Confirmation of id. or other thoughts would be very much appreciated.

Could well be. So many similar larvae among the noctuids. The best plan is to rear it and hope it's not parasitised.
