Was "Tales of the Tinkerdee" shot in colour or in black and white?

Hello there!

I just had a question about the early Muppet special, "Tales of the Tinkerdee". Was the special originally shot in colour or black & white? Just curious! :smile:

Humph. Maybe it is in black and white. I was recently watching my copy of the special, and I noticed some flickers in the picture. Could it be a B&W kine of a colour videotape (or even a kinescope, or even a black & white videotape)? I don't know! :confused:

Does anyone know if "Tales of the Tinkerdee" was originally shot in B&W or colour? :concern:
