Dancer Fred ____ (7)
I believe the answer is:
astaire
'dancer fred' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for astaire that I've seen before include "Fred, Hollywood dancing icon" , "Fred --, dancer/actor" , "US dancer (Top Hat)" , "Fred -, twentieth century US dancer" , "A satire about Fred, great Hollywood dancer" .)
