I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'polish' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'girl got hour off to check' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'girl' could be 'edi' and 'edi' is found within the answer.

'and' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for edit that I've seen before include "Alter text" , "Adjust text" , "be a bookmaker" , "Supervise - amend" , "doctor" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
