… drunk actor with case of Moselle wine (8)
I believe the answer is:
hammered
'drunk' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'actor with case of moselle wine' is the wordplay.
'actor' becomes 'ham' (ham is a kind of actor).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'case of' suggests removing the centre (outsides of).
'wine' becomes 'red' (red wine is a kind of wine**).
'moselle' with its centre taken out is 'me'.
'ham'+'me'+'red'='HAMMERED'
(Other definitions for hammered that I've seen before include "Utterly defeated in a contest" , "Used a tool; very drunk" , "Thoroughly beaten (colloq.)" , "Forged" , "Soundly beaten" .)
