Over in France nothing supported by talk promoter aligned with references (8)
I believe the answer is:
oriented
'over' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'in france nothing supported by talk promoter aligned with references' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'nothing' could be 'o' (looks like zero - 0) and 'o' is located in the answer.
'in france' could be 'en' ('in' in French) and 'en' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for oriented that I've seen before include "Aligned" , "Placed in relation to compass, or accustomed to things" , "Made to face in a certain direction - the East? (8)" , "Got bearings or became accustomed to" .)
