Best list accommodates VIPs (8)
I believe the answer is:
toptable
'accommodates vips' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'best list' is the wordplay.
'best' becomes 'top' (top can mean the very best).
'list' becomes 'table' (list can mean a table or chart).
'top'+'table'='TOPTABLE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for toptable that I've seen is " VIPs seated here?".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
