Stop filming with single light out (3,3,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cut and run

'light out' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'stop filming with single' is the wordplay.
'stop filming' becomes 'cut' (I've seen this before).
'with' becomes 'and' (I've seen this before).
'single' becomes 'run' (cricket).
'cut'+'and'+'run'='CUT AND RUN'

(Other definitions for cut and run that I've seen before include "light out" , "A batsman may" , "Exit a thorny situation rather than deal with it" , "get away quickly" , "Make an urgent escape" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
