Crossword Genius

Twist British result (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bend

'twist' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'british result' is the wordplay.
'british' becomes 'b' (abbreviation e.g. in 'BBC').
'result' becomes 'end' (I've seen this before).
'b'+'end'='BEND'

(Other definitions for bend that I've seen before include "Repair" , "Turn - buckle" , "Crouch" , "Country; bird" , "Stoop; (heraldic) stripe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
