I'm guessing this is "The Giant Pancake"
t/x 24th March 1976

The episode is "Rupert & The Giant Pancake", the 10th ep. of Series 4 - date: 24/03/76. The only reason the clip's in b/w is because it's an old gen. copy. Old videotape recordings deteriorate over a course of time and some, as here lose their colour from reduplication. It's definitely a 1976 ep. The series ran from '70 - '77. Some of these classic 70s ep's were released in the 80s on pre-rec VHS video tape - now very rare - even on eBay. Jackie Lee's 'Rupert the Bear' song was released in 1970.

im thinking it sthe late 60s too as alot of rupert toys were made in the late 60s and early 70s i think mary turner is on the production company i think she came from thunderbirds and was also involved in clopper castle which was in the late 60s too

i agree thinking back to the events in my life when these were on. i dont remember ever seeing them in colour and we had our first colour set in 75. mind i was too old to watch it by then, but definetly on our old black n white bush pre school 1972

This version of Rupert the bear was never made in the late seventies.

The eagle eyed will see that there are occasional glimpses of colour in this clip - clearly a 70s episode.

I understand all the ITC/ATV Rubert Bear shows were transmitted between 1970 and 1979. All were produced in colour - the reason this is black & white is probably cos it was recorded on a very old form of video, there's a lot of colour Top of the Pops etc that were recorded in the mid-70's that exist only in b&w cos they are preserved through an old home recording
no this video is from 1967 according to the start which i missed when i started to encode the clip
