James worked with Kali Theatre Company on the site-specific piece ''My Daughter's Trial''.

James has also recorded a number of unabridged audiobooks including Alan Hollinghurst's ''The Stranger's Child'', the follow-up to his Booker Prize winning ''The Line of Beauty''. "Wilson is a triumph, bringing character's voices recognisably from childhood to old age... mesmerisingly examined for meaning," said Karen Robinson of ''The Sunday Times'' on his reading of ''The Stranger's Child''. Other titles include John Boyne's ''Crippen'', Herbie Brennan's ''The Ruler of the Realm'' and ''Faerie Lord'', F. E. Higgins' ''The Eyeball Collector'', ''The Bone Magician'' and ''The Black Book of Secrets'', which received the Merit award at the CBI Book of the Year Awards, Matt Haig's ''The Runaway Troll'' and ''Shadow Forest'', Janet Foxley's ''Muncle Trogg'' and the role of Cooper in Mike Gayle's ''The Life and Soul of the Party''. For years, James played Paul, one of the new generation of ''The Tomorrow People'' in the audio series by Big Finish Productions. The audio series was cancelled due to the discontinuation of a licensing arrangement with Fremantle Media Enterprises in December 2007. Wilson also guest-starred in Big Finish Production's audio productions ''Sapphire and Steel - The School'', as Max, and in ''Doctor Who'', as Brian, in ''The Rapture''. Provided by Wikipedia
