Hi Bob, Welcome on board!
Was the ship the HMS Manxman?
All I could find was a HMS Manxman on a Imperial War Museum cine film, good quality, but no sound. Sadly in 1955. Not 1947/48!
Regards Alan

Bob, Have a look through these two links of: (you may already have viewed them?). I didn't see the route and ship you seek for 1947/48! (I might have missed it?).
