Hung over, forgets name and gets delayed (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impeded

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'delayed' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'hung over forgets name and' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'name' could be 'ede' and 'ede' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'gets' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for impeded that I've seen before include "Got in the way of" , "Hindered progress" , "Held up" , "Hampered" , "Blocked, hindered" .)
