Crossword Genius

Somehow fit pale cinema (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fleapit

'cinema' is the definition.
(I know that fleapit is a type of cinema)

'somehow fit pale' is the wordplay.
'somehow' is an anagram indicator.
'fit'+'pale'='fitpale'
'fitpale' anagrammed gives 'FLEAPIT'.

(Other definitions for fleapit that I've seen before include "dive?" , "Run-down cinema" , "shabby public building" , "Shabby old cinema" , "jumper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
