Bowdlerise and make a lot of money from (5,2)
I believe the answer is:
clean up
'bowdlerise' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'make a lot of money from' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is found within the answer.
'lot' could be 'c' and 'c' is present in the answer.
'money' could be 'leu' (I've seen this before) and 'leu' is located in the remaining letters.
A single letter 'p' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for clean up that I've seen before include "Make tidy" , "emulate Bowdler" , "Put in order - gain financially" , "free of filth" , "Win everything!" .)
