Python perhaps lethargic (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

idle

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'python' is the first definition.
(Eric Idle, member of Monty Python)

'lethargic' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'perhaps' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for idle that I've seen before include "Trivial" , "Indolent" , "Maybe Eric" , "no longer employed?" , "Tick over like engine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
