Doctor Who not interfering with English film (3,8,7)
I believe the answer is:
the towering inferno
'doctor who not interfering with english film' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'doctor who not interfering with english' is the wordplay.
'doctor' is an anagram indicator.
'with' is an insertion indicator.
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'who'+'not'+'interfering'='whonotinterfering'
'whonotinterfering' is an anagram of 'thetoweringinfrno'.
'thetoweringinfrno' placed around 'e' is 'THE TOWERING INFERNO'.
Can you help me to learn more?
