There was a plan to re-open the VC10 line with the build of 2xRB211 powered '10s; I believe the Chinese were particularly keen on them.
There was also one parked at RAE Bedford for many years; I seem to recall it had experienced a heavy landing and was deemed unairworthy; it was an ex BUA one with the cargo door.
