A telly production recently (6)
I believe the answer is:
lately
'recently' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'a telly production' is the wordplay.
'production' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'telly'='atelly'
'atelly' with letters rearranged gives 'LATELY'.
(Other definitions for lately that I've seen before include "In the recent past" , "In the last few days" , "Recently" , "Not long ago, in recent times" , "Within recent time" .)
