Victors, Vulcans and Cuba

I watched the above programme on the Discovery channel last Saturday and found it really interesting. During the programme they mentioned Blue Steel and Skybolt, So this started me wondering. I have often seen films and pictures of Blue Steel on a Vulcan but never on a Victor, so I googled it but couldn't find a satisfactory answer to my question, hence this post!

I was wondering how difficult it was to arm a Victor with Blue Steel because of the aircrafts ground clearance, and was the missile ever tried on the Valiant or were they out of service by then?
