Continued with "Not new! Making a comeback" (4,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

went on

'continued' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'with not new making a comeback' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'making a comeback' is a reversal indicator.
'not'+'new' is 'notnew'.
'notnew' reversed gives 'WENT ON'.

(Another definition for went on that I've seen is " Did rabbit".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
