Colin James (bishop)
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Colin Clement Walter James (20 September 1926[1]–10 December 2009)[2] was an Anglican bishop in the Church of England.
James was educated at Aldenham School and King's College, Cambridge before his ordained ministry which began with a curacy at Stepney, after which he was a chaplain of Stowe School.[3] He was ordained a deacon at Trinitytide 1952[4] and priest a year later,[5] both by William Wand, Bishop of London, at St Paul's Cathedral.[4][5]
Following his title, he was a producer of religious programmes for the BBC[6] and then (his final appointment before being ordained to the episcopate) vicar of St Peter's Bournemouth.[7] James was the first suffragan Bishop of Basingstoke in the Diocese of Winchester, beginning with his consecration as a bishop on 2 February 1973 at St Paul's Cathedral by Michael Ramsey, Archbishop of Canterbury.[8] He held his suffragan see with a residentiary canonry of Winchester Cathedral.[1]
He was translated to become diocesan Bishop of Wakefield[9] and was enthroned at Wakefield Cathedral on 9 February 1977.[10] He was returned to the Diocese of Winchester as the diocesan Bishop of Winchester;[11] he was enthroned at Winchester Cathedral on 28 June 1985,[12] having been elected two weeks prior[12] and confirmed (officially becoming the Bishop) at some intervening point. He retired in April 1995.[13]
