Shook vigorously and questioned persistently (6)
I believe the answer is:
pumped
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'shook vigorously' is the first definition.
(pump can mean to shake or move vigorously)
'questioned persistently' is the second definition.
('pump' can be a synonym of 'question persistently')
'and' is the link.
(Another definition for pumped that I've seen is " Forced (a fluid) to move".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
