Somebody distributed oranges following sport at school (9)
I believe the answer is:
personage
'somebody' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'distributed oranges following sport at school' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'oranges' is 'ersonag' which is present in the answer.
'sport' could be 'pe' (short for Physical Education) and 'pe' is found within the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for personage that I've seen before include "big noise, it's said" , "VIP" , "(Important) individual" , "Luminary" , "Somebody" .)
