How accurate a statement is this?

Judging by the picture. I seem to always remember a darker (thinner) outercoat. Definitely don't remember a yellow raincoat. The flatcap is spot on.

The yellow raincoat and sou'wester were Gromit's

Would this be the same Ben Whitehead who played Sam Skilbeck in Emmerdale Farm in the 1980s? https://emmerdale.fandom.com/wiki/Samuel_Skilbeck

On this page it says Emmerdale was the actor's only credit.

To be fair if the coat was too dark (in this situation) it might have blended into the shadows and been less noticeable. The coat and cap are a nice nod to Clegg / Sallis.

In LotSW his jacket seemed darker in color and light weight rain coat / wind breaker.

<exasperated sigh> That's a trench coat with the cap. Truly wore a trench coat! Clegg has a grey-ish or black plastic mac ... and every Yorkshireman wears a cloth cap! Lazy, stupid reporters.

Good call there Theatrical. Maybe that is Truly's jacket on the peg covering up Clegg's jacket. We can only see Clegg's hat. Truly is in the next room brewing up and "helping" the Police with the investigation. He did not cover up Gromit's jacket because of the dog hairs.
