Lowest character in Shakespeare (6)
I believe the answer is:
bottom
'lowest' is the definition.
(synonyms)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bottom that I've seen before include "Athenian weaver (AMND)" , "Weaver < 's backside" , "Crack" , "Shakespeare's weaver" , "far end" .)
