Heads Up #14: Crocodile Shoes


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.

Alex Kingston in Crocodile Shoes


Alex Kingston had a topless scene in the first series although I currently do not have any information on which episode it was from.  There were 7 episodes.  She was not in the second series which had 6 episodes.

    1. Thanks for getting in touch - I'd recorded it on Friday night, but didn't watch it until Saturday evening.
