Take too many clothes off and ruin film (10)
I believe the answer is:
overexpose
'take' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with perception as well as being verbs in their base form.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'too many clothes off and ruin film' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'too many' could be 'over' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'over' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'expose' 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?
(Another definition for overexpose that I've seen is " Give too much publicity to".)
