Greek or RAF Blenheim ?
 

Hello,
Is this Blenheim a Greek or RAF aircraft ?
Can anyone make out the lettering beneath the cockpit ?

The lettering that I can see below the cockpit reads "MERCURY". The aircraft in the background is an engineless PZL P24.

Hello,
Thank you both, that does then make it an RAF aircraft rather than a Greek one.
A/c "M", named "Mercury".
Any idea's as to Squadron or serial number ?
Thank you
Alex

211 Sqn. Several aircraft of this squadron bore individual names, not necessarily related to the letter in their squadron code. The place is most likely Paramythia
