Show what hapless crossword setter admitted (2,5,1,6,1,4)
I believe the answer is:
im sorry i havent a clue
'admitted' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'show what hapless crossword setter' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'show' could be 'vent' (venting is a kind of showing) and 'vent' is found in the answer.
'what' could be 'sorry' (I've seen this before) and 'sorry' is found in the answer.
'setter' could be 'i' (the person who set this crossword) and 'i' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
