Nasty person curate had to endure? Not entirely (3,3)
I believe the answer is:
bad egg
'nasty person' is the definition.
(a bad egg is an unpleasant person)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bad egg that I've seen before include "Worthless person" , "A real stinker?" , "Villain" , "Rotten scoundrel?" , "Worthless individual" .)
