Rubbish German article about the Queen's fancy man (8)
I believe the answer is:
panderer
'fancy man' is the definition.
('panderer' can be a synonym of 'fancy man')
'rubbish german article about the queen's' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'rubbish' could be 'pan' (both can mean to criticise heavily) and 'pan' is found within the answer.
'german' could be 'd' and 'd' is found in the answer.
'about' could be 're' (regarding) and 're' is present in the answer.
'queen' could be 'er' (abbreviation for Elizabeth Regina) and 'er' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
