He did imitations and made a pile (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

heaped

'made a pile' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'he did imitations' is the wordplay.
'did imitations' becomes 'aped' (I've seen this in another clue).
'he'+'aped'='HEAPED'

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for heaped that I've seen before include "Piled, stacked" , "Fully laden" , "made a pile" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
