Also enthralling doctor, the French kind of lottery (7)
I believe the answer is:
tombola
'kind of lottery' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'also enthralling doctor the french' is the wordplay.
'also' becomes 'too' ('too' can be a synonym of 'also').
'enthralling' is an insertion indicator.
'doctor' becomes 'mb' (Bachelor of Medicine, Medicinae Baccalaureus).
'the french' becomes 'la'.
'too' placed around 'mb' is 'tombo'.
'tombo'+'la'='TOMBOLA'
(Other definitions for tombola that I've seen before include "Lottery game" , "Ticket-drawing game" , "Fair game" , "Tickets are drawn from a revolving drum in this raffle" , "Game played at fetes" .)
