Carry on Constable - the last movie (4)
I believe the answer is:
cope
'carry' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with social activities as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'on constable the last movie' is the wordplay.
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'the last' says to take the final letters.
'movie' becomes 'cop' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
The last letter of 'constable' is 'e'.
'e' put after 'cop' is 'COPE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cope that I've seen before include "Priest's ceremonial cloak" , "Episcopal cloak" , "Deal effectively (with a difficulty)" , "Deal well with difficulties" , "Long cloak for a priest" .)
