Do ice dancing near South East London? (7)
I believe the answer is:
diocese
'london?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'do ice dancing near south east' is the wordplay.
'dancing' indicates an anagram.
'near' says to put letters next to each other.
'south east' becomes 'SE' (abbreviation).
'do'+'ice'='doice'
'doice' with letters rearranged gives 'dioce'.
'dioce'+'se'='DIOCESE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for diocese that I've seen before include "District under care of bishop" , "Area under bishop" , "Ecclesiastical see" , "Jurisdiction of a bishop" , "Bishopric" .)
