Continue to make a fuss about old films (5,2)
I believe the answer is:
carry on
'a fuss about old films' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'continue to make' is the wordplay.
'continue' becomes 'on' (I've seen this in other clues).
'to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'make' becomes 'carry' (carrying is a kind of making).
'on' put after 'carry' is 'CARRY-ON'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for carry on that I've seen before include "Questionable behaviour" , "Keep going!" , "hand luggage on American Airlines?" , "song and dance" , "Have an affair - cause a fuss - continue" .)
