Help - Magnum PI

Post by pvccoatgirlspartner »

Hello everybody

I wonder if there is anybody out there that remembers an episode of Magmum PI where there was a female private eye who seemed to wear different shiny raincoats in it?

I vaguely recall her wearing a white shiny PVC one and I think a red PVC one. All a bit odd bearing in mind it was set n Hawaii.

I have tried finding the episode and have failed miserably so far, so I was hoping that somebody on here might know?

Many thanks for taking the time to read this and hope I have not wasted anybody's time.

Hi, I think one of the episodes had Morgan Fairchild wearing PVC jackets but it must have been in one of the later series from three onwards. There was also one called the storm which showed a lot of the cast wearing various slickers and souwesters during a Hurricane when Higgins was hosting a dinner party and burglars broke in to the estate which was quite good.
Hope it is come help.

Hi
Yes I remember seeing a clip on the web of the lady in a red shiny mac. It used to be on the macrain website, but he only has a few videos on his new youtube site.

It might be listed on the lorraine elements rainwear club site which has a pretty comprensive list of film and tv rainwear spottings

Going thru some old threads & saw this one, and it just so happens that I ran across a clip on YouTube today...

The woman in question is legendary comedienne Carol Burnett, sporting a splendid red PVC trench.

Latest Update to this post of mine from a couple of years ago......

I have since found out that the episode I am looking for from Series 8, Episode 7.
The episode is called "A Girl Named Sue".

The even better news is that the whole series of Magnum is being repeated on ITV4 HD.

They are already up to Series 5, Episode 6, so should only be a month or so before this particular episode is aired again for me to enjoy!

Watch this space.......

Not a magnum episode but was watching the relic hunter the other day and there was a girl wearing a top and shorts and a thick cape all made of shiny red pvc.

Hi! The actress is Carol Burnett and she wears a shiny red PVC mac in Series 8 Episode 7 ('A Girl Named Sue'). You may be able to find the episode by doing a search on the Internet - try Dailymotion, YouTube or ok.ru. Alternatively, it may be available on the Forum - just a case of doing a quick search.
