What the beggarly dog did late at night? (3,2)
I believe the answer is:
sat up
'did late at night?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to bodily activities as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for sat up that I've seen is " Suddenly became alert".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
