- Big Country performs in the music video "In a Big Country" from the album "The Crossing" recorded for Mercury Records. The music video features the band scouring the countryside as they are trying to track down an unspecified treasure. They are constantly beaten to the punch by a woman is appears to be a rival treasure-hunter. Clips of the band on stage play throughout.—Shatterdaymorn
- The first half of the video follows the band as they ride through lush green fields on sports three-wheelers and a motorbike while the woman watches them through binoculars. The group soon locates a black box emblazoned with the band's logo and a map. What is inside the box is never shown. The opening scenes are filmed at the then-derelict Corfe Castle railway station including the down platform shelter and show the ruins of Corfe Castle in the background. The station is now part of the restored Swanage Railway. The woman lures them to her by starting a fire in a barn, the smoke drawing the band members' attention. She defeats all four with a single punch. They then consult their map and head off again. The video concludes with the woman trapped on a small island surrounded by a cliff with a rescue fire burning. Interspersed throughout the video, in between the action, the band is shown in flannel shirts and blazers performing the song onstage. The video ends on this note, with Stuart dancing and the rest of the band playing.—Peter-Patrick76 (peter-patrick@mail.com)
