Thank you Malone for confirming and parsing my guess for that one!
But I ask if that is really a good clue? Or is it one where the wordplay is more intended as a "clever" comment by the setter on the solution than as a means by which the punters might reach that solution.
Since changing from the Graun to the i I've noticesd that I am often solving the puzzles "Quick" style, from the definitions, with little help from the wordplay.
