A nice scene from a 1980's British sit-com with a woman in a long yellow PVC mac and Sou'wester.
Go to about 15.45 and again at 18.10

nice vid, but you could tell by the audience reaction that the raincoat was part of the bit.

it seems every time a raincoat is shown in a sit com its over done, and not part of everyday use.

not just this clip, but from Topper in the 50s to the Sunny in Philadelphia episode a couple of weeks ago with the yellow rain suit.

what I would like to see is just normal every day usage, on a regular basis. Guys started wearing cut-offs because of Flipper, girls because of the Dukes of Hazzard.

if a character wore a slicker week after week it would make a difference, There was a program called Life Unexpected, rained nearly every week, and all jean jackets and hoodies.
