Homely part for Mr. Gibson (3)
I believe the answer is:
mel
'mr gibson' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'homely part' is the wordplay.
'part' indicates a hidden word.
'MEL' is hidden within 'homely'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mel that I've seen before include "-- Brooks, film director" , "Honey" , "- - Gibson (actor)" .)
