Crocodile Shoes follows the life of Jed Shepperd, a Geordie factory worker who staves off the threat of looming redundancy by writing country music in his spare time.

Jimmy Nail as Jed Shepperd.
With his future unsure, Jed makes a lifetime decision to quit his job and pursue his dream career as a country singer and from there the rollercoaster starts - from Newcastle to Nashville and back again, this is a story of fame and fortune; adventures, opportunities, conflicts, heartache, the rise, the fall.
Not only was this a primetime success, it also launched Nail's chart-topping pop career.
Wine, beer and spirits all the time Though I have you still she's always on my mind. The rain falls down I'm soaking through, I'm an old man inside a young man's suit. My crocodile shoes are crying too For they know how much love I have for you.
