Continuity mistake: In the scene where the Narrator is singing "Poor, Poor Joseph. Whatchya gonna do?" the first time, she sets her coat down on the edge of the pit into which Joseph was thrown. The camera moves to the brothers who sing a bit, then the Narrator is shown standing next to a camel with her coat off singing "In a trice the dirty deed was done." The camera then moves to the brothers again, then it pans back to the Narrator. Her coat is on again.
