Ewoks regularly interrupting happily without co-ordination (7)
I believe the answer is:
gawkily
'without co-ordination' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'ewoks regularly interrupting happily' is the wordplay.
'regularly' indicates alternate letters (regularly take one letter, leave next etc.).
'interrupting' indicates putting letters inside.
'happily' becomes 'gaily' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
The alternate letters of 'ewoks' are 'wk'.
'wk' put into 'gaily' is 'GAWKILY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
