Ceremony held when I joined troubled broadcaster (4)
I believe the answer is:
rite
'ceremony' is the definition.
(I know that rite is a type of ceremony)
'held when i joined troubled broadcaster' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'i' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'rte' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rite that I've seen before include "Tire of ceremony" , "form of service" , "(Words used in) ceremonial" , "Ceremony - ritual" , "Religious ceremonial sounds correct" .)
