Class 47s Nenta Tour & R07 Ark Royal Portsmouth 16.10.10

Missed the arrival of these 47s at Portsmouth Harbour but got this footage of them leaving for Fratton yard.Walked round the Harbour & saw the 2 tugs "Powerful & SD Bustler" heading out the harbour. Went up the Spinaker Tower & realised the 2 tugs were escorting Ark Royal into dock.Sorry about the background noise & the blue tinge to the footage of Ark Royal taken from inside Spinaker Tower (C&A)

There is a multi aircraft flypast and the queen is visiting Ark Royal on friday 5th of November, I was wondering if Gosport waterfront would be a good place to watch from ?
