Following the success of "The Good Sex Guide", the ITV franchise holder Carlton offered Clarke her own day-time show, and the resulting programme, "Swank", co-presented with fashion designer David Emanuel, ran for two series. In 1994, Clarke tried a new venture, stand-up comedy, and took her one-woman show "21st Century Scutt" around the country - the tour included a stint at the Edinburgh Film Festival and the Royal Festival Hall on London's South Bank. She was a regular guest on Channel 4's music show "The Word", including one occasion where she tricked presenter Terry Christian into showing his testicles in a hidden camera set-up.
