Was Catherine a standard redhead? (4)
I believe the answer is:
parr
'was catherine a' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'standard redhead?' is the wordplay.
'standard' becomes 'par' (standard of play in golf).
'redhead?' becomes 'r' (the head/first letter of 'red').
'par'+'r'='PARR'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for parr that I've seen before include "survivor of the decapitator?" , "Fish" , "old trout?" , "Catherine ---, Henry VIII's widow" , "Wife surviving" .)
