Banned from working in Bedford (9)
I believe the answer is:
forbidden
'banned' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'working in bedford' is the wordplay.
'working' indicates an anagram.
'in'+'bedford'='inbedford'
'inbedford' is an anagram of 'FORBIDDEN'.
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for forbidden that I've seen before include "Prohibited, taboo" , "This fruit is always more enticing" , "Illicit pleasure" , "not 35 [PERMISSIBLE]" , "Disallowed, banned" .)
