Robert Shearman (also credited as Rob Shearman; born February 10, 1970 near London, England, United Kingdom) is currently best-known as a writer of Doctor Who audio plays for Big Finish, and for his ongoing association with Jarvis & Ayres Productions (Martin Jarvis and Rosalind Ayres) which has resulted in five plays for BBC Radio 4: About Colin (2000), Inappropriate Behaviour (2002), Afternoons with Roger (2003), Forever Mine (2004) and Teacher's Pet (2005). These have all been broadcast in the station's regular weekday Afternoon Play slot.
An established theatrical playwright, Shearman has worked with Alan Ayckbourn, had a play produced by Francis Ford Coppola, and has received several international awards for his work in theatre.
He wrote the episode Dalek for the 2005 series of Doctor Who produced by Russell T. Davies for the BBC, which was a development of the themes introduced by his earlier Big Finish audio play Jubilee. He is not returning to write a script for the second series due to other work commitments. Previous television work has included episodes of the 1950s-set rural drama Born and Bred, broadcast on BBC One.
