Personal Quote:

In the July 4, 2001 Newswatch, Wild West End column: "There was one woman whom I was absolutely infatuated with, but she had no interest in me. I was very young at the time and thought the way to prove my love was to write a book for her. It ran for pages and pages and I had it bound in leather to give to her. But it still didn't have the desired effect." See more »

Trivia:

James' co-star in Rome (2005), Kevin McKidd, also played his love interest in Bedrooms and Hallways (1998). See more »
