"James is an absolute pleasure to work with, and is an incredibly passionate Producer who always manages to bring the best out of his teams, often working in highly pressured environments.
He has fantastic storytelling skills and a real eye for detail. I’ve worked with James for a number of years now and I'd recommend him to any team.
He is a well respected, and a well liked Producer who really believes in what he does."

"I have worked with James over the last couple of years on a number of projects. I admire him most for his ability to tell stories.
In my opinion it's James' character development and narrative creation that has contributed to the record viewing figures, and a fiercely loyal following on some of the programmes he has worked on.
In closing, James is a uniquely gifted storyteller, and his work speaks for itself."
"What impresses me most about James Rowat is his storytelling - he can spot a story where others might see nothing but a sequence of events.
He brings out the hidden humanity thanks to a combination of production experience, journalistic skill and (most crucially) inherent empathy.
He’s a keen observer of what makes us tick, with strong work ethics and ethics in general. I’ve worked with him for half a decade, and seen him diligently craft many shows.
And it helps that he’s nice."
