Barmen besmirched Rowan's character (2,4)
I believe the answer is:
mr bean
'besmirched rowan's character' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'barmen' is the wordplay.
'barmen' can be anagrammed to 'MR BEAN'.
But, I am not sure how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mr bean that I've seen before include "Inept Rowan Atkinson character" , "TV comedy show" , "TV series about buffoon" .)
