Usually clicking noises are associated with a bad starter.

try smacking the starter with a hammer. sounds like there is a bad contact spot and the part that bumps the starter to a new spot isnt working. you have to give it a decent whack as someone turns the key, but dont hit it hard enough to break the case.

+1

However, this is a temporary solution (thought I would clarify). If you can, get the starter tested (if it will start eventually) to determine for sure if it is the starter thats bad. From the description, it sounds like it is. Keep us updated
