Don't move - that's a fib, nevertheless (3,5)
I believe the answer is:
lie still
'don't move' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'fib nevertheless' is the wordplay.
'fib' becomes 'lie' (a fib is a lie).
'nevertheless' becomes 'still' (synonyms).
'lie'+'still'='LIE STILL'
'that's a' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
