My last cop forged material in cell (9)
I believe the answer is:
cytoplasm
'material in cell' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'my last cop forged' is the wordplay.
'forged' indicates an anagram.
'my'+'last'+'cop'='mylastcop'
'mylastcop' with letters rearranged gives 'CYTOPLASM'.
(Another definition for cytoplasm that I've seen is " Material in cell".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
