Thing managed to escape in dark voyage (5,6)
I believe the answer is:
night flight
'dark voyage' is the definition.
'thing managed to escape' is the wordplay.
'managed' is an anagram indicator.
'to escape' becomes 'flight' ('flight' can be a synonym of 'escape'**).
'thing' with letters rearranged gives 'night'.
'night'+'flight'='NIGHT FLIGHT'
'in' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
