Crossword Genius

Remove antique Victorian bottles (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

evict

'remove' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'antique victorian bottles' is the wordplay.
'bottles' says the answer is hidden in the clue (bottling is a kind of containing).
'EVICT' is hidden within 'antique victorian'.

(Other definitions for evict that I've seen before include "Expel from home" , "Put out of house as for non-payment" , "Expel (tenant)" , "Dislodge" , "Dispossess" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
