Dancer strangled debt collector with abandon (6)
I believe the answer is:
duncan
'dancer' is the definition.
(I know that Duncan is a dancer)
'strangled debt collector with abandon' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'debt collector' could be 'dun' (historical term for a debt collector) and 'dun' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'can' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for duncan that I've seen before include "Man's name" , "innovative dancer" , "Isadora ..., pioneer of modern dance" , "King murdered by ambitious Macbeth" , "Scottish king" .)
