James Clark
James Clark James Clark, or Clarky as he prefers to be known, presents The Northern Uproar every Thursday on BBC Radio Newcastle between 19:00 and 22:00.
It's the best place to go for new, local and live music from the North East and beyond.

You can also catch him on Saturday's Clarky and Wilko between 12:00 and 14:00.

Place of birth: Newcastle.
Favourite place or view in the North East: The press box at St. James' Park. I've only been there a couple of times, but looking out over a packed stadium just as the Magpies kick off is pure magic!
First record you bought: The Boomtown Rats' "I Don't Like Mondays".
Previous jobs: Tennis Coach, Bar Manager, Librarian, Call Centre worker...and a few more besides!
Best thing about working in radio: Being on air and getting to play some of my favourite music.
Best thing about your show: That's an easy one...the music, of course!
Person you would most enjoy being stuck in a lift with: Uma Thurman in her Kill Bill jump suite...
Favourite party game: I used to love Kingo (??), but football was my main love...even though I was rubbish at it.
Where you are when you get most of your inspiration or creative thoughts: They usually come at the most inopportune moments...just when I'm falling asleep...in the middle of a film...while having a serious conversation with someone etc...etc...
Where you go for quiet moments: My bed.
Memories of teachers at school: The best times were on ski trips with the likes of Mr. Horn and Mr. Hall.
Any habits, annoying or otherwise: Think you'd better ask my flat mate Mike about that!
