Port consumed by Frankie Vaughan (4)
I believe the answer is:
kiev
'port' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'consumed by frankie vaughan' is the wordplay.
'consumed by' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (inserted letters get consumed).
'KIEV' is hidden in the letters of 'frankie vaughan'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for kiev that I've seen before include "place in eastern Europe" , "FC Dynamo/chicken ___" , "Ukrainian city" , "Ukraine's largest city" , "Capital of 13 down" .)
