Take the chair, cancelling programme originally live (6)
I believe the answer is:
reside
'live' is the definition.
(I know that reside is a more specific form of the action live)
'take the chair cancelling programme originally' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'take' could be 'side' (siding is a kind of taking) and 'side' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 're' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reside that I've seen before include "Live (at an address)" , "Dwell - settle" , "Hang out with" , "Make one's home permanently" , "Desire (anag) - to live" .)
