One tiny picture it is risky not to check? (3,5,5)
I believe the answer is:
the small print
'it is risky not to check?' is the definition.
(eg the small print on a contract must be checked)
'one tiny picture' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'the' (both can introduce a definite example of something).
'tiny' becomes 'small' (similar in meaning).
'picture' becomes 'print'.
'the'+'small'+'print'='THE SMALL PRINT'
(Another definition for the small print that I've seen is " Insurance details, perhaps".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
