Brought in to RTE podium without U-turn (8)
I believe the answer is:
imported
'brought in' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'rte podium without u-turn' is the wordplay.
'without' suggests deleting specific letters.
'turn' indicates an anagram.
'rte'+'podium'='rtepodium'
'rtepodium' with 'u' removed is 'rtepodim'.
'rtepodim' is an anagram of 'IMPORTED'.
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for imported that I've seen before include "Brought in merchandise from abroad" , "Brought in; meant" , "brought home" .)
