A Parisian told it's beside the point (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unrelated

'beside the point' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a parisian told' is the wordplay.
'a parisian' becomes 'un' ('a' in French).
'told' becomes 'related' (relating is a kind of telling).
'un'+'related'='UNRELATED'

'it's' is the link.

(Other definitions for unrelated that I've seen before include "Not linked" , "beside the point" , "Having no (family) connection" , "Irrelevant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
