James Edward Cooray Smith[1] (born in Solihull in 1978) is a British writer, critic and columnist of patrilineal Indian descent.[2] He has written for journals including New Statesman and Prospect. He has also contributed to the Doctor Who audio and DVD range.

Career

A graduate of University College London, Cooray Smith has written radio drama and comedy. He has contributed to numerous news, film and science fiction magazines. He has a specific interest in British television history.

Asked about his long-term habit of co-writing with a variety of people, Cooray Smith commented: "I've written things with a lot of different people, partially because I'm a great believer in third brain theory, and partially as a series of attempts to disguise my own lack of talent!"[3]

In 2017, he responded to the casting of Jodie Whittaker in Doctor Who by writing an article accusing those who disagreed with the lead character's sex change of being simply sexist and misogynistic. His article was entitled "Uncomfortable with a female Doctor Who? It’s time to admit your real motives".[4]
