Canberra at Shawbury

A quick question in this exalted company
My only experience of the Canberra was in 1972 whilst on the JATCO course at Shawbury. I went on a jolly, er.. experience flight in one down to Kemble and back. The pilot was an old buffer Wingco. (I was only 19 YO). I think 27 MU was there at the time, would they have kept a Canberra as a comms cab?
On that course there were several ex-vulcan/canberra/shackleton aircrew who really didn't take to the idea of sitting in a black hole, talking on the r/t to people enjoying themselves.
