Somewhere in New Zealand daughter listened to radio, missing start (7)
I believe the answer is:
dunedin
'radio missing start' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'somewhere in new zealand daughter listened' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'in' is found in the answer.
'new' could be 'n' and 'n' is found in the answer.
'daughter' could be 'd' and 'd' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dunedin that I've seen before include "Otago port" , "New Zealand port" , "NZ South Island port" , "Antipodean seaport" , "New Zealand location" .)
