Porridge for one – mushy, moist and cold (6)
I believe the answer is:
sitcom
'porridge' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.
'one mushy moist and cold' is the wordplay.
'one mushy' indicates an anagram (letters mushed up).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'cold' becomes 'C' (eg on taps).
'moist' put after 'c' is 'cmoist'.
'cmoist' anagrammed gives 'SITCOM'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sitcom that I've seen before include "Fresh Meat, for example" , "Amusing TV series (abbr.)" , "Kind of TV programme" , "Episodical TV programme" , "Shortened form of situation comedy" .)
