Short comedy routine in spotless kitchen (4)
I believe the answer is:
skit
'short comedy routine' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'in spotless kitchen' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SKIT' can be found hidden inside 'spotless kitchen'.
(Other definitions for skit that I've seen before include "Satirical drama" , "piece of satire" , "Comedy item" , "Kits for funny play" , "satirical observation" .)
