Odd about Penny, American, visiting Morecambe perhaps (9)
I believe the answer is:
eccentric
'odd' is the definition.
(both can mean unusual)
'about penny american visiting morecambe perhaps' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 'c' (abbreviation for circa).
'penny american' becomes 'cent' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'visiting' indicates putting letters inside.
'morecambe perhaps' becomes 'eric' (Eric Morecambe).
'c'+'cent'='ccent'
'ccent' put within 'eric' is 'ECCENTRIC'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eccentric that I've seen before include "Unconventional in appearance or behaviour" , "Quirky" , "Odd person is off-centre" , "Off-the-wall" , "Wacky" .)
