Frazzled director is being dishonest with hospital staff who treat patients in remote locations (6,7)
I believe the answer is:
flying doctors
'frazzled director is' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'dishonest with hospital staff who treat patients in remote locations' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'dishonest' could be 'lying' (synonyms) and 'lying' is present in the answer.
'who' could be 'doctor' (from 'Doctor Who', the famous TV series) and 'doctor' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'being' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
