Hint received by an old cleric who may be Victorian (10)

I believe the answer is:

antipodean

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

'who may be victorian' is the definition.
(I know that Antipodean can be Victorian)

'hint received by an old cleric' is the wordplay.
'hint' becomes 'tip' (synonyms).
'received' is an insertion indicator.
'by an old' becomes 'ano' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'cleric' becomes 'dean' (I've seen this in other clues).
'tip' placed within 'ano' is 'antipo'.
'antipo'+'dean'='ANTIPODEAN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for antipodean that I've seen before include "Exactly opposite" , "from NZ?" , "coming from Perth" , "extreme point" , "From Australia and New Zealand" .)
