Crossword Genius

Repeatedly like this disliked person (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

soandso

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'repeatedly' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'like this disliked person' is the wordplay.
'like this' becomes 'so' ('like so').
'disliked person' becomes 'andso' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'so'+'andso'='SOANDSO'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for soandso that I've seen is " Unpleasant person - whose name has been forgotten!".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
