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.

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.
