That's what Borgen says to Pastor Bandbul as he comes in:

Af med den Isfrakke, Snemand! Sid ned. Nu kommer der Kaffe.

I was wondering, no way to imagine that Danes have among their winter
clothes anything like an "Isfrakke", huh?

'Isfrakke' is a synonym for an icy cold overcoat.

I'd rather think a coat covered in snow or ice, hence the epithet "Snowman".

Maybe I should have put a comma after 'icy', then Per and I would be in
concordance with each others vision of an 'isfrakke'.

He could be litterally calling him a Snowman.
Often snowman has "items" made of snow (apart from feet, arms, head etc.),
like the lapels of a jacket (traced in the snow) - which would be an Ice
Coat.

Ikke blot det. Sneen klistrer til frakken og skal bankes af.
Derfor ligner han en snemand, da han kommer ind.

Jeg har da ofte - dengang der var rigtig vinter til - v�ret i en tilsvarende
situation, efter en spadseretur eller efter en cykeltur i heftigt snevejr.
Men i reglen har jeg banket sneen af i entreen eller et tilsvarende sted.
Huen, vanterne og halst�rkl�det var ofte liges� tilsneet/ tiliset.

N� ja, den lille istid. Da svensken besatte det meste af Danmark og
'vi' mistede Sk�ne, Halland og Blekinge. Op i firehjulstr�kkeren.

Ja, jo, jeg k�mpede da ogs� sammen med en fyr, de senere kaldte
g�ngeh�vdingen.
