Get Smart cast is stormed by crowd? (5,2,7)
I believe the answer is:
dress to impress
'get smart' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'cast is stormed by crowd?' is the wordplay.
'cast' is an anagram indicator (letters are dispersed or cast around).
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'crowd?' becomes 'press' (to press can mean to crowd around).
'is'+'stormed'='isstormed'
'isstormed' anagrammed gives 'dresstoim'.
'dresstoim'+'press'='DRESS TO IMPRESS'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
