Escapes including receipts? They shouldn't really be seen (3-5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

8

3-5

out-takes

'they shouldn't really be seen' is the definition.
(eg out-takes from a film aren't seen)

'escapes including receipts?' is the wordplay.
'escapes' becomes 'outs' (out can mean an escape or exit).
'including' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'receipts?' becomes 'take' (I've seen this in another clue).
'outs' placed around 'take' is 'OUT-TAKES'.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
