Beastly vicars frame the mother of humanity, or the other way round (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
vice versa
'the other way round' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'beastly vicars frame the mother of' is the wordplay.
'beastly' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'frame' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'the mother of' becomes 'eve' (I've seen this in another clue).
'vicars' anagrammed gives 'vicrsa'.
'vicrsa' placed around 'eve' is 'VICE VERSA'.
'humanity or' acts as a link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for vice versa that I've seen before include "Revise a VC? (anag)" , "back to front" , "The opposite (also applies)" , "film" , "The other way around" .)
