First person to succumb saved by a radiant, alluring individual (1,3,2,3,5)
I believe the answer is:
a bit of all right
'first person to succumb saved' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'by a radiant alluring individual' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'by' could be 'of' and 'of' is found in the answer.
'a' is present in the answer.
'individual' could be 'i' (Roman numeral for one, ie individual) and 'i' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for a bit of all right that I've seen before include "attractive woman" , "sexy-looking girl" , "beautiful girl" , "attractive proposition? - with 5a" , "Sexy looking girl" .)
