Swine upset everyone after scrap where house calls made (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bingo hall

'where house calls made' is the definition.
(people shout 'house' in the game bingo)

'swine upset everyone after scrap' is the wordplay.
'swine' becomes 'hog' (hog is a kind of swine).
'upset' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'everyone' becomes 'all' (all people).
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'scrap' becomes 'bin' (I've seen this in other clues).
'hog' back-to-front is 'goh'.
'goh'+'all'='gohall'
'gohall' put after 'bin' is 'BINGO HALL'.

(Other definitions for bingo hall that I've seen before include "entertainment venue" , "two fat ladies here?" , "Where to find two little ducks" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Times.
