Keenly expectant, with nothing in abundance (5)
I believe the answer is:
agogo
'in abundance' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'keenly expectant with nothing' is the wordplay.
'keenly expectant' becomes 'agog' (I've seen this in another clue. I am not sure about the 'keenly' bit.).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'nothing' becomes 'O' (O resembles 0).
'agog'+'o'='AGOGO'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for agogo that I've seen is " in abundance".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
