Some French boy (3)
I believe the answer is:
des
This clue is a double definition.
'some french' is the first definition.
'boy' is the second definition.
(Other definitions for des that I've seen before include "and 9 Across: Former 'Countdown' host" , "- O'Connor, Br. singer" .)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
