Shallow vessel to move across under bottom (6)
I believe the answer is:
bedpan
'shallow vessel' is the definition.
(type of shallow vessel)
'move across under bottom' is the wordplay.
'move across' becomes 'pan' (as in a camera panning).
'under' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'bottom' becomes 'bed' (synonyms).
'pan' put after 'bed' is 'BEDPAN'.
'to' is the link.
(Another definition for bedpan that I've seen is " Hospital receptacle".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
