Bend production around range of sheets (3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bed linen

'sheets' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bend production around range' is the wordplay.
'production' indicates anagramming the letters.
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'range' becomes 'line' (I've seen this in other clues).
'bend' is an anagram of 'bedn'.
'bedn' placed around 'line' is 'BED-LINEN'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bed linen that I've seen before include "Sheets and pillowcases, for instance" , "Sheets, pillowcases, etc." , "Sheets and pillowcases, primarily" , "Sheets and pillow cases, for instance" , "Sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
