A photosensitive photographic colour material suitable for processing in a colour developer free of benzyl alcohol comprising a support bearing a silver halide emulsion, the halide content of which is at least 85 % chloride, which contains in or adjacent said silver halide layer: (1) a bisphenol derivative having two linked phenol rings, one of the phenolic hydroxy groups being substituted and at least one of the phenol rings being substituted, and (2) a ballasted yellow coupler of general formula (I), wherein L is -NHSO2, -SO2NH-, -OCO-, -COO-, -OSO2- or -SO2O-, R is halogen or an alkyloxy group of 1-4 carbon atoms, R is a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group of sufficient size and configuration to render the coupler non-diffusible in the photographic material, and X is a halogen, aryloxy, arylthio or heterocyclic coupling-off group.
