Name of male bishop hugged by model (4)
I believe the answer is:
toby
'name' is the definition.
'male bishop hugged by model' is the wordplay.
'male bishop' becomes 'b' (abbreviation for bishop in chess. I am not sure about the 'male' bit.).
'hugged by' means one lot of letters goes inside another (I've seen this in other clues).
'model' becomes 'toy' (toy can mean a miniature model).
'b' placed inside 'toy' is 'TOBY'.
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for toby that I've seen before include "This Jug is like man with three-cornered hat" , "So-called knight" , "Belch, perhaps" , "fellow" , "dog with frill round neck" .)
