Thus Rose oddly holds party for Elizabeth and Henry? (6)
I believe the answer is:
tudors
'elizabeth and henry?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'thus rose oddly holds party' is the wordplay.
'oddly' means one should take alternating letters (letters in the odd-numbered positions are used).
'holds' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'party' becomes 'do' (do can informally mean a party).
'thus'+'rose'='thusrose'
The alternating letters of 'thusrose' are 'turs'.
'turs' going around 'do' is 'TUDORS'.
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tudors that I've seen before include "English dynasty in the 16th century" , "Royalty" , "Members of English royal line" , "Members of a house" , "English monarchs from Henry VII to Elizabeth I" .)
