Minister bringing 150 to Morecambe? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cleric

'minister' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'150 to morecambe?' is the wordplay.
'150' becomes 'CL' (Roman numerals).
'to morecambe?' becomes 'eric' (comedian Eric Morecambe).
'cl'+'eric'='CLERIC'

'bringing' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cleric that I've seen before include "Man of the cloth" , "Person ordained to the Christian ministry" , "Priest caught in circle" , "Type of cloth, perhaps" , "Priest, religious leader" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
