The last thing a tragedy might do (3,2,8)
I believe the answer is:
end in disaster
'might do' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'the last thing a tragedy' is the wordplay.
'the last thing' becomes 'endin' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'a tragedy' becomes 'disaster' (synonyms).
'endin'+'disaster'='END IN DISASTER'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
