Student name included in revival of matinee feature (9)
I believe the answer is:
lineament
'feature' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'student name included in revival of matinee' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'student' could be 'l' (learner, as in L-plates for learner drivers) and 'l' is found within the answer.
an anagram of 'name' is 'neam' which is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lineament that I've seen before include "Distinctive character" , "distinguishing feature" , "(Facial) feature" .)
