Pause — delay (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

interlude

This clue is a double definition.

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

'delay' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for interlude that I've seen before include "Space of time; break" , "Intervening period" , "Eli turned (anag.)" , "Temporary amusement or diversion" , "Intermission, break" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
