Crossword Genius

A Parisian, Ravel is broadcast worldwide (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

universal

'worldwide' is the definition.
('universal' can be a synonym of 'worldwide')

'a parisian ravel is broadcast' is the wordplay.
'a parisian' becomes 'un'.
'broadcast' is an anagram indicator.
'ravel'+'is'='ravelis'
'ravelis' anagrammed gives 'iversal'.
'un'+'iversal'='UNIVERSAL'

(Other definitions for universal that I've seen before include "Ubiquitous" , "Belonging to the whole world" , "Of worldwide scope" , "Common" , "affecting everyone" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
