Perhaps Ed's pun upsets (6)
I believe the answer is:
upends
'perhaps' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'ed's pun upsets' is the wordplay.
'upsets' indicates anagramming the letters.
'eds'+'pun'='edspun'
'edspun' anagrammed gives 'UPENDS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for upends that I've seen before include "Send up in reverses" , "Stands bottom over top" , "Turns upside down, overturns" , "affects to a great extent" .)
