Funny film with space to accommodate host of show (6)

I believe the answer is:

romcom

'funny film' is the definition.

'space to accommodate host of show' is the wordplay.
'space' becomes 'room' (room is a kind of space).
'to accommodate' is an insertion indicator.
'host of show' becomes 'mc' (short for Master of Ceremonies).
'room' enclosing 'mc' is 'ROMCOM'.

'with' acts as a link.

(Another definition for romcom that I've seen is " Film".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
