Fuss about Charlie who does a bad job? (7)
I believe the answer is:
botcher
'a bad job?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'fuss about charlie who' is the wordplay.
'fuss' becomes 'bother' ('bother' can be a synonym of 'fuss').
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'charlie who' becomes 'c' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'bother' placed around 'c' is 'BOTCHER'.
'does' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for botcher that I've seen is " Dodgy repairer".)
