Crossword Genius

Tired Tory with deep-set disorder (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stereotyped

'tired' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'tory with deep-set disorder' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'disorder' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'diseased' mean this (I've seen this in other clues)).
'deep'+'set'='deepset'
'tory' put after 'deepset' is 'deepsettory'.
'deepsettory' with letters rearranged gives 'STEREOTYPED'.

(Other definitions for stereotyped that I've seen before include "Hackneyed" , "Conforming to stock idea" , "cast as nutty professor, say" , "Tired" , "Conforming to a stock image" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
