Fellow gets information on time (4)
I believe the answer is:
gent
'fellow' is the definition.
(I know that fellow can be written as gent)
'information on time' is the wordplay.
'information' becomes 'gen' (gen can informally mean information).
'on' says to put letters next to each other (in a down clue, letters appear on others).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'gen'+'t'='GENT'
'gets' is the link.
(Other definitions for gent that I've seen before include "Toff" , "bloke" , "Informal and short man" , "Chap, fellow" , "Refined man (colloquial)" .)
