RAF to buy ex Saudi C-130's?

After buying second hand South African Pumas the RAF is considering buying ex Saudi C-130's as a stop gap between to make up for a short fall in airlift capacity between the end of the C-130K and the arrival (if it ever comes) A400M.

Heard this today from a reliable source at the future London Swindon Intl Airport.
