Wash before intermission, making complete separation (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
clean break
'complete separation' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'wash before intermission' is the wordplay.
'wash' becomes 'clean' (I've seen this before).
'before' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'intermission' becomes 'break' (synonyms).
'clean'+'break'='CLEAN BREAK'
'making' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
