Home bird gets film online here (8)
I believe the answer is:
internet
'online here' is the definition.
(place to go online)
'home bird gets film' is the wordplay.
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'bird' becomes 'tern' (tern is a kind of bird).
'gets' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'film' becomes 'et'.
'in'+'tern'+'et'='INTERNET'
(Other definitions for internet that I've seen before include "Business connecting one to www" , "World Wide Web" , "computer link-up" , "Electronic maze on which websites are based" , "Source of information" .)
