I believe the answer is:
splice
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">repair as film</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for splice that I've seen before include "Join (rope or wedding couple)" , "Unite (in matrimony)" , "Join two ropes together by weaving" , "Knit" , "Interweave strands" .)
