Victory is an historic relic of incalculable value that reminds us, as a nation, of a time when the fleet was all that stood between us and funny foreign food.
Damn right - long may she serve!

As for the Avengers, if the RN has a need to train rear crew and this aeroplane meets that requirement, WTF are you lot arguing about?

I'm not convinced that the Avenger is the right platform for the turbulent, low level environment, but if the RN finds that it meets their essential training needs, so be it. End of - as they say in yoofspeak.
