Does anybody know if Blackhawk ever released a Super 8 or 16mm scored print of this?

I've looked at all the Blackhawk catalogs I have from '72-'79 and the only versions were strictly silent with no sound/scored versions issued. In fact, it seems to have been discontinued altogether sometime after 1977 being there's no listing for it after 1977 at least in the catalogs I have which certainly isn't all of them. I didn't keep all of them and found myself buying back issues on Ebay.

Griggs-Moviedrome-Essex had a print, accompanied with the audio cassette of appropriate music, back in the 70's - But no, Blackhawk only released it silent - Shorty

P.M. Films did once sell the BBC film "Private Life Of The Cuckoo" on Super8 3 reel Colour sound, 1 reel colour sound magnetic, 1 reel colour sound optical and 1 reel colour silent those single reel films had a running time of 9 minutes approx.
Could this be the same film ?
Graham.
