Richard Curtis film, perhaps, showing city commander troubled about love (8,6)
I believe the answer is:
romantic comedy
'richard curtis film perhaps' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'city commander troubled about love' is the wordplay.
'troubled' indicates an anagram.
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'love' becomes 'o' (love means zero in tennis).
'city'+'commander'='citycommander'
'citycommander' anagrammed gives 'rmanticcomedy'.
'rmanticcomedy' placed around 'o' is 'ROMANTIC COMEDY'.
'showing' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
