Devilish demonstration at central Greenwich (5)
I believe the answer is:
demon
'devilish demonstration at central greenwich' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'demonstration at central greenwich' is the wordplay.
'demonstration' becomes 'demo' (synonyms).
'at' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'central' says to take the centre.
The middle letter of 'greenwich' is 'n'.
'demo'+'n'='DEMON'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for demon that I've seen before include "Fiend, devil" , "Evil spirit or cruel person" , "Ghoul" , "Genius" , "malignant spirit" .)
