Radio
In 1992 Clary hosted a radio show for the BBC called Intimate Contact, the premise of which was for him to act as a genial 'Mr Fix-it' for a wide range of 'punter' problems. Clary attempted to solve these issues over the telephone, with the assistance of roving reporter "Hugh Jelly" (actor Philip Herbert). It originally aired on BBC Radio 1 for two series; the pilot and 6-part first series have since been repeated on BBC Radio 7 a number of times.
Clary had also appeared regularly in The Big Fun Show in 1988. He has also often been a guest on Just a Minute, the BBC Radio 4 comedy show.

The captured fume of space foams in our ears—”

—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
