How a doctor can get fit in slow motion (5)
I believe the answer is:
drift
'motion' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'how a doctor can get fit in slow' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'doctor' could be 'dr' (abbreviation) and 'dr' is located in the answer.
an anagram of 'fit' is 'ift' which is present in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drift that I've seen before include "go with the tide" , "wander from place to place" , "non-standard deviation?" , "General trend - current travel" , "Float with current" .)
