Scene I love in play (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

diorama

'scene' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'i love in play' is the wordplay.
'love' becomes 'o' (In tennis, 'love' means 'zero').
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'play' becomes 'drama' ('drama' can be a synonym of 'play'**).
'i'+'o'='io'
'io' put within 'drama' is 'DIORAMA'.

(Other definitions for diorama that I've seen before include "Representation of scene" , "Scene with models" , "Miniature scene with figures" , "AM radio? (anag)" , "Model with 3-D figures" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
