Accounts received from everybody, everything considered? (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
all told
'accounts received' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'everybody everything considered?' is the wordplay.
'everybody' becomes 'all' (I've seen this before).
'everything considered?' becomes 'told' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'all'+'told'='ALL TOLD'
'from' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for all told that I've seen before include "In summary" , "To summarise" , "sum" , "Nothing missed out" , "book reading's finished?" .)
