Can anyone identify this ship?

so my wife and I decided to tackle the cupboard of doom under the stairs and we came across some pictures of my father in law as a young man as well as this picture of a British aircraft carrier and I was wondering if anyone can identify it?

HMS Albion at a guess - not least as the helicopters have it spelled out on their noses(!)

Some facts about this specific HMS Albion

Good spot, Brian!

Of course, it could have been Bulwark, with Albion’s air wing “having a laugh” :laughing:

I didn’t pick that up on the original photograph I guess that’s the advantage of being able to enlarge image on the internet.

There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.

Watson, load my pipe while I chop a few lines on the mirror. I daresay the mystery has been resolved and a celebration is in order!
