Humorous or playful (7)
I believe the answer is:
jocular
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'humorous' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)
'playful' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for jocular that I've seen before include "funny" , "With jokes and good humour" , "Humorous, joking" , "Humorous or playful" , "Given to telling gags (and having fun)" .)
