Who was the character that Windsor Davies..
used to call 'lovely boy' and why was he his favorite our of the rest of the soldiers? Did he just take a shine to him, or was there a specific reason?

He did favour Parkins, but wasn't "lovely boy" just a Welsh thing that he called everybody, whether he thought they were lovely or not?
No Guru, No Method, No Teacher.
"Lovely boy, fine pair of shoulders" - he thought Private Parkins was his son from a past fling with the boy's mother. This distinguished the lad from the rest of the concert party who were just "a load of poofs!"
