She shows some expediency (4)
I believe the answer is:
edie
'she' is the definition.
'some expediency' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'EDIE' is hidden within 'expediency'.
'shows' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
