New popular record in show originally involving game (8)
I believe the answer is:
ninepins
'game' is the definition.
(I know that ninepins is a type of bowling)
'new popular record in show originally' is the wordplay.
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'popular' becomes 'in' ('in' can mean trendy).
'record' becomes 'EP' (abbreviation for extended play record).
'show originally' becomes 's' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'n'+'in'+'ep'+'in'+'s'='NINEPINS'
'involving' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ninepins that I've seen before include "Bowling game" , "Skittles (IX, not V)" , "Form of skittles" , "Bowling targets" , "Skittles, IX objects to be knocked down" .)
