Climbing plants for shade?

What can I plant to climb up a side wall in my garden? It's in shade for all but the very early morning. Nothing too scented.

Hydrangea petiolaris. Will do well anywhere.

Pyracantha will also do well, it is thorny, so you need gloves to prune it but it has berries for birds and can be shaped to form tiers. Have seen it shaped to a giant heart in one of my training gardens and it looked fab. It will need some wire supports.

Also, quite a few clematis prefer shade. Bee's Jubilee and Guernsey Cream doing very well on a northfacing wall but need support.

Also some of the climbing roses will be ok, Madame Alfred Carriere is one of them. Again needs support.
