Good shot by doctor on empty seat furthest in (9)
I believe the answer is:
innermost
'furthest in' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'good shot by doctor on empty seat' is the wordplay.
'good shot' becomes 'inner' (I've seen this before).
'by doctor' becomes 'mo' (medical officer. I am not sure about the 'by' bit.).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'empty' suggests removing the centre.
'seat' with its middle taken out is 'st'.
'inner'+'mo'+'st'='INNERMOST'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for innermost that I've seen before include "extremely intimate" , "Furthest in" , "Private" , "Sort of secrets" , "Closest to the centre" .)
