East End wife and mother with new bloke from The Hague? (8)
I believe the answer is:
dutchman
'bloke from the hague?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'east end wife and mother with new' is the wordplay.
'east end wife' becomes 'dutch' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'mother' becomes 'ma' (Ma is another word for mother or mum).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'dutch'+'ma'+'n'='DUTCHMAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dutchman that I've seen before include "His uncles speaking frankly" , "Rembrandt, say" , "Accursed Wagner character" , "Wagner's seafarer" , "European" .)
