Sailors at sea head of editorials put in The Sun (8)
I believe the answer is:
solarise
'sun' is the definition.
(I know that sun can be written as solarise)
'sailors at sea head of editorials' is the wordplay.
'at sea' is an anagram indicator.
'head of' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'editorials' is 'e'.
'sailors' is an anagram of 'solaris'.
'solaris'+'e'='SOLARISE'
'put in the' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
