'Der Alte' S04-E11 'Der Irrtum' (1980). Two actresses (Iris Berben and Thekla Carola Wied) wear the same long shiny fuchsia-coloured PVC mac. Some members will recognise this episode as there was a short clip from it on either Macrain's YT channel or the Vinylrain (France) website many moons ago. This link shows the full scene and is in better quality.

Thanks so much for finding thr original. For years this has.been one of my absolute raincoat videos as it portals two really attractive women and their excitement at finding such a beautiful mac.The colour and style are outstanding, great hood, length and wonderfully full with deep pockets.
And lovely to find such a garment being the significant element of the story. It makes me wonder if someone in the crew of Der Alte is one of us, as so many stunning raincoats appear in the series.
Once again thanks Rothboy for another wonderful find.

They were the days when u could go into a shop and come out with a mac like that all my macs are purchased off auction sites it's very hard to find shops that have these sort of macs on sale and I don't think any of them do

Cheers Priscilla - glad you enjoyed it. I was very pleased to find it as all I had previously was the short clip in poor quality - now replaced!

i remember seeing this video on youtube several years ago but unfortunately was removed.
Ah, so it was once on YouTube - that might have been the short clip on Macrain's YT page.
I'm pretty sure I first saw a clip from the episode on the old Vinylrain (France) website. I wonder it that's still going? Will have to check it out....

You can find them here and there Beth, although to find a mac like they are wearing would be a near miracle!
