Surname of the critic who says everything’s awful? (6)
I believe the answer is:
slater
'surname of the critic who says everything's awful?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
This is all the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for slater that I've seen before include "Man on top" , "Does one abuse" , "Layer of roof slabs" , "Professional roof worker" , "High-reaching worker perhaps" .)
