Elsewhere, Clark has directed four episodes of the 1979 series Flambards, which starred Christine McKenna, and later went on to be a director of continuing dramas for BBC One including Casualty, Pie in the Sky and Dangerfield.

A collection of Clark's original short stories entitled Telling Stories is to be published in late 2011 by Avalard Publishing.^[1]
