Slim tenant's strange episodes (11)

I believe the answer is:

instalments

'episodes' is the definition.
('instalment' can be a synonym of 'episode')

'slim tenant's strange' is the wordplay.
'strange' is an anagram indicator.
'slim'+'tenants'='slimtenants'
'slimtenants' anagrammed gives 'INSTALMENTS'.

(Another definition for instalments that I've seen is " Hire purchase payments".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
