Crocodile Shoes

Crocodile Shoes is a British 13-part television drama set across two series and was made by the BBC.

The first series, comprising seven episodes, was written by and starred Jimmy Nail as a factory worker who becomes a country and western singer.

The show's eponymous theme tune "Crocodile Shoes" became a chart hit for Nail, as did the album of the same name.

A sequel, comprising six episodes, Crocodile Shoes II, followed in 1996 and the theme tune "Country Boy" was a hit for Nail too.

Paddy McAloon of Prefab Sprout supplied five original songs to the two series, all of them recorded by Jimmy Nail.
