Crossword Genius

Fellow in sparkling entertainment (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gent

'fellow' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'in sparkling entertainment' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'GENT' can be found hidden inside 'sparkling entertainment'.

(Other definitions for gent that I've seen before include "Honourable man" , "Auctioneer's tool" , "cove" , "Refined man (colloquial)" , "Man of good standing (informal)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
