Fee charged by celebrity in show, Loot? (10,5)
I believe the answer is:
appearance money
'fee charged by celebrity' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'show loot?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'show' could be 'appearance' (synonyms) and 'appearance' is found in the answer.
'loot?' could be 'money' (loot is a kind of money) and 'money' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
