In film, along with his best-known role in A Clockwork Orange, he also appeared in films including Oh Lucky Man!, again with McDowell, Firefox, and Enigma.
Popular among his colleagues, Clarke was remembered by Richard E. Grant of Downton Abbey as "Hilarious and irreverent." Co-star McDowell said of him, "He was truly a fantastic actor. As well as being a incredibly funny mimic! He always got me laughing into tears with his rendition of Eddie Waring, the rugby league commentator."
Clarke died at age 67 on November 12, 2014 in London.
