Crossword Genius

Follows stories on the radio (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tails

'follows' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'stories on the radio' is the wordplay.
'stories' becomes 'tales' ('tale' can be a synonym of 'story').
'on the radio' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'tales' sounds like 'TAILS'.

(Other definitions for tails that I've seen before include "Evening dress; coin toss call" , "Animals' extremities" , "the back of bears - bulls too" , "Gambler's choice" , "Full evening dress for men" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
