Deduces a guest is wrong, and that's probably right (8,5)
I believe the answer is:
educated guess
'probably right' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'deduces a guest is wrong' is the wordplay.
'is wrong' indicates an anagram.
'deduces'+'a'+'guest'='deducesaguest'
'deducesaguest' is an anagram of 'EDUCATED GUESS'.
'and that's' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for educated guess that I've seen is " good shot".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
