The man's taken round Leeds, unfortunately paying no attention (8)
I believe the answer is:
heedless
'paying no attention' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'the man's taken round leeds unfortunately' is the wordplay.
'the man' becomes 'hes' (I've seen this in other clues**).
'taken round' indicates putting letters inside.
'unfortunately' is an anagram indicator.
'leeds' anagrammed gives 'edles'.
'hes' enclosing 'edles' is 'HEEDLESS'.
(Other definitions for heedless that I've seen before include "Without caution" , "Inattentive, unmindful" , "Reckless, careless" , "Taking no thought" , "Taking no notice" .)
