Wife slapped English TV doctor that's known for The West Wing (5,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

white house

'that's known for the west wing' is the definition.
(the West Wing is a part of the White House)

'wife slapped english tv doctor' is the wordplay.
'wife' becomes 'w'.
'slapped' becomes 'hit' (hit can mean to slap).
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'tv doctor' becomes 'House' (doctor from the US TV show of the same name).
'w'+'hit'+'e'+'house'='WHITE HOUSE'

(Another definition for white house that I've seen is " Official residence".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
