Kaput goes vast heater! (3,5)
I believe the answer is:
gas stove
'heater' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'kaput goes vast' is the wordplay.
'kaput' indicates an anagram.
'goes'+'vast'='goesvast'
'goesvast' with letters rearranged gives 'GAS-STOVE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for gas stove that I've seen is " Type of cooker".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
