While original a sermon’s interminable (2,4,2,4,3)
I believe the answer is:
as long as ones arm
'interminable' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'while original a sermon's' is the wordplay.
'while' becomes 'as long as' (I've seen this in another clue).
'original' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'sermon'='asermon'
'asermon' with letters rearranged gives 'onesarm'.
'aslongas'+'onesarm'='AS LONG AS ONES ARM'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
