... in PE - mostly with Judo ring could be kind of character-forming? (6-2,7)
I believe the answer is:
joined-up writing
'kind of character-forming?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'in pe mostly with judo ring could be' is the wordplay.
'mostly' means to remove the last letter (most but not all of the word).
'could be' is an anagram indicator.
'with' with its final letter taken off is 'wit'.
'in'+'pe'+'wit'+'judo'+'ring'='inpewitjudoring'
'inpewitjudoring' with letters rearranged gives 'JOINED-UP WRITING'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
