Is she an enthusiast for New York? (5)
I believe the answer is:
fanny
'is she' is the definition.
'an enthusiast for new york?' is the wordplay.
'an enthusiast' becomes 'fan' (fan is a kind of enthusiast).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'new york?' becomes 'ny'.
'fan'+'ny'='FANNY'
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
