True, 53 Squadron did indeed get all ten in the air at the same time for a Christmas card photo (taken from a Britannia I believe). I was at Brize at the time and remember the huge engineering effort that went into getting the whole fleet serviceable, and although I do not have a copy of the photo, it was pretty awful as I recall.
