Fruit in lemon, gone off (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
ogen melon
'fruit' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'lemon gone off' is the wordplay.
'off' is an anagram indicator.
'lemon'+'gone'='lemongone'
'lemongone' anagrammed gives 'OGEN MELON'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Another definition for ogen melon that I've seen is " Fruit".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
