Hawker Sea Hawk on HMS Ocean?

This image I found within photographs my late father took back in the 1950s. I think we can see a Hawker Sea Hawk on HMS Ocean and probably taken at Portsmouth, but I could be wrong?

Could be WF205 which was an F.1 Sea Hawk!

Yes, it’s a Sea Hawk, judging by the code on the tail from a Lossiemouth based Squadron.
