Heathen who'll never quite make page one (5)
I believe the answer is:
pagan
'heathen' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'who'll never quite make page one' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'page' could be 'p' and 'p' is present in the answer.
'one' could be 'an' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'an' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pagan that I've seen before include "Unbeliever" , "Non-mainstream religious believer" , "One who does not acknowledge a god" , "Infidel" , "A heathen, not a Christian" .)
