Prone. possibly, to be retailing pork pies? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lying

I believe this is a double definition.

'prone' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'to be retailing pork pies?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'possibly' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for lying that I've seen before include "Prevaricating" , "So one can't stand" , "Deceit" , "Not being disturbed" , "Prone - telling porkies" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
