Entertainment from Dad’s era? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pastime

'entertainment' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'dad's era?' is the wordplay.
'dad's' becomes 'pa's' ('pa' can be a synonym of 'dad').
'era?' becomes 'time' (era is a kind of time).
'pas'+'time'='PASTIME'

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for pastime that I've seen before include "Hobby; regular activity" , "Leisure pursuit" , "diversion" , "doing the crossword, say" , "Leisure activity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
