Temple say, where church dignitary originally involved in criminal trials (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
child star
'dignitary originally involved in criminal trials' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'temple say where church' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'church' could be 'ch' (abbreviation on maps etc) and 'ch' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
