Held forth thunderously (7)
I believe the answer is:
stormed
'held' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with contact as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for stormed that I've seen is " Charged".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
