Bounded, given command to get into bed (8)
I believe the answer is:
bordered
'bounded' is the definition.
('bordered' can be similar in meaning to 'bounded')
'command to get into bed' is the wordplay.
'command' becomes 'order' (order is a kind of command**).
'to get into' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'order' inserted into 'bed' is 'BORDERED'.
'given' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
