Seen that a few times but seen as there was never a HMS Britannia aircraft carrier i call bullshit on this story.

Britain's navy hasn't had that many ships since the old king was on the throne.

It's from October 98, probably about the last time the Irish could afford to pay for the lighthouse's electricity.

Urban Myth. Sorry to piss on you fireworks!
HMS Britannia (1904) was a King Edward VII class pre-dreadnought battleship launched in 1904 and sunk by UB-50 in 1918.
That was the last ship to bear the name.
