Further bit player (5)
I believe the answer is:
extra
I believe this is a double definition.
'further' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'bit player' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
(Other definitions for extra that I've seen before include "Something additional or bit player in movie" , "Studio crowd player" , "There's more" , "Additional - run - actor - newspaper edition" , "no ball perhaps" .)
