In Leningrad, I always spoke (6)
I believe the answer is:
radial
'spoke' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'in leningrad i always' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'RADIAL' can be found hidden inside 'leningrad i always'.
(Other definitions for radial that I've seen before include "Spreading from the centre of a circle" , "tread on it" , "a sort of drill" , "Arranged like wheel spokes" , "Type of car tyre" .)
