Moving ten to HQ secretly (2,3,2)
I believe the answer is:
on the qt
'secretly' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'moving ten to hq' is the wordplay.
'moving' indicates anagramming the letters.
'ten'+'to'+'hq'='tentohq'
'tentohq' is an anagram of 'ON THE QT'.
(Other definitions for on the qt that I've seen before include "In secret, not openly" , "Secretly" .)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
