It's revealed by one who has nothing on local boozer - Ken is sick! (4,4)
I believe the answer is:
bare skin
'it's revealed by one who has nothing on local' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'boozer ken is sick' is the wordplay.
'boozer' becomes 'bar'.
'sick' is an anagram indicator.
'ken'+'is'='kenis'
'kenis' with letters rearranged gives 'eskin'.
'bar'+'eskin'='BARE SKIN'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
