Newspaper article by Belgian writer (3,7)
I believe the answer is:
ian fleming
'writer' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'newspaper article by belgian' is the wordplay.
'newspaper' becomes 'i' (UK newspaper).
'article' becomes 'an' (indefinite article).
'by' says to put letters next to each other.
'belgian' becomes 'fleming'.
'i'+'an'+'fleming'='IAN FLEMING'
(Other definitions for ian fleming that I've seen before include ""Goldfinger" author" , "writer" .)
