Dan Tomkins came close to netting a winner for Kings Langley only to see Mark Whittamore beat his shot away forcing the game into extra time.
Extra time was only 12 seconds old when the Blueboys made the breakthrough, Jowle's pass releasing Parkinson who raced clear and tucked it past Channer.
Whittamore kept the opposition out with three fantastic saves, one a point blank save to deny Ian Felgate and two full length saves to deny Tomkins.
Gallagher confirmed the Blueboys spot in the final with a decisive second goal in the final minute reacting quickest to fire into the roof of the net after Paul Danslow's initial effort had been repelled.
