Dads pitch into favourite singer (3-4)
I believe the answer is:
pop-star
'favourite singer' is the definition.
'pop star' can be an answer for 'singer' (I have seen 'Popular singer ' mean 'pop star' so perhaps 'singer' could also mean 'pop star'). I'm unsure of the 'favourite' bit.
'dads pitch' is the wordplay.
'dads' becomes 'pops' ('pop' can be a synonym of 'dad').
'pitch' becomes 'tar' (synonyms).
'pops'+'tar'='POP-STAR'
'into' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
