I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cheat chauffeur that goes round and round delivering premium bonds?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'cheat chauffeur' is the wordplay.
'cheat' becomes 'screw' (synonyms).
'chauffeur' becomes 'driver' (I've seen this in another clue).
'screw'+'driver'='SCREWDRIVER'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for screwdriver that I've seen before include "Hand tool - cocktail" , "may make a fixer tight?" , "Common tool" , "it gives the fixer a turn" , "Tool for turning fastening device" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
