Sees bronco told off on the wagon (5-4,5)
I believe the answer is:
stone-cold sober
'on the wagon' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'sees bronco told off' is the wordplay.
'off' indicates anagramming the letters.
'sees'+'bronco'+'told'='seesbroncotold'
'seesbroncotold' anagrammed gives 'STONE-COLD SOBER'.
(Another definition for stone-cold sober that I've seen is " Not a bit drunk".)
I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
