Next Friday the Drama channel start showing the 1994 BBC drama series Crocodile Shoes written by and starring Jimmy Nail as Geordie factory worker Jed Shepperd who becomes a country and western star. Series 1 covered his rise to fame and series 2 in 1996 was about how he copes with his new-found fame. The show's theme music became a real life chart hit for Jimmy Nail.
