Persuaded to get pickled when there’s no choice (3)
I believe the answer is:
led
'persuaded' is the definition.
'get pickled when there's no choice' is the wordplay.
'LED' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I am not sure how this is indicated.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for led that I've seen before include "Paved the way" , "Went first to show the way" , "showed the way ahead" , "associated with Zeppelin" , "Light-emitting diode (abbr.)" .)
