Distend (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

swell

bloat

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">distend</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(bloating is a kind of distending)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for bloat that I've seen before include "Fill up with gas" , "Puff out" , "Cause to swell" , "Make swollen" , "Thus treat some fish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the Family Time, The Independent, the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday.com and The Sun.
