Some French bloke (3)
I believe the answer is:
des
'some french' is the definition.
('some' in French)
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for des that I've seen before include "- O'Connor, Br. singer" , "and 9 Across: Former 'Countdown' host" .)
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
