Fleet Air Arm Blenheims

The Fleet Air Arm received 88 Blenheim Mk I and IVs which had been transferred from the RAF for Fleet Requirement training but there seems to be very little info about them. At least one of them had seen action with 107 Squadron having been damaged by ME109’s before transfer to the Fleet Airm Arm. Does any one know more about these aircraft?

I found this photo in Graham Warner’s book “The Bristol Blenheim A Complete History”. I can’t make out the nose art but it isn’t the squadron badge.
