soap opera

'corrie?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.

'aa propose reforms' is the wordplay.
'reforms' indicates anagramming the letters.
'aa'+'propose'='aapropose'
'aapropose' with letters rearranged gives 'SOAP-OPERA'.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for soap opera that I've seen before include "Regularly broadcast series" , "Serialised domestic melodrama on TV or radio" , "TV programme" , "Melodramatic TV serial" , "Everyday drama serial" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
