Could anyone PP-rescue this ghastly pic for me?? - I can't re-take it.

Wow.

I came to this rather late, but not to worry, I couldn't beat what's been done already

The B&W results seem to be the way to go, as has been suggested.

Not to disparage any other efforts, I'd have to vote for Roger Circle's version.

Where is Ray Guselli when we need him ??

I thought a simple "Adjust color for skin tones" might do it = WRONG!

It might be fun for you to submit this one to the "Retouching" forum!
