Huge fuss around finale of spectacular TV show (3,7)
I believe the answer is:
big brother
'tv show' is the definition.
(reality TV show franchise)
'huge fuss around finale of spectacular' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'huge' could be 'big' (similar in meaning) and 'big' is found within the answer.
'around' could be 'o' (a round letter) and 'o' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for big brother that I've seen before include "Orwellian dictator - TV show" , "TV programme" , "1984's totalitarian controller -- TV reality show" , "Autocratic leader" , "Personification of a totalitarian state" .)
