I got my D. viscida from Sonia Barker-Fricker. Mine is green - or at least it is on the bits I can see through the wealth of dead leaves and junk that stick to them.

Re: mystery succulent (Dudleya?)
This picture has been posted by the BCSS instagram account named as Dudleya attenuata and has flowers like mine, but with the leaves not in focus (although they look powdery).

My plant doesn't have many flowers bunched together so I don't think it could be densiflora, but attenuata seems like it could be a good match perhaps?

Re: mystery succulent (Dudleya?)
I think you are correct. Looks like Dudleya attenuata occuttii. Not many photos but I am still surprised someone has not identified it conclusively!
Re: mystery succulent (Dudleya?)
I spotted a hoverfly on the plant today! It was on it for ages, I put the plant outside until it had flown away so it didn't get stuck in the greenhouse.
