The role of the 'ospital in London? (6)
I believe the answer is:
ealing
'the role of' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
''ospital in london?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'in' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ealing that I've seen before include "studio site" , "London Film studio, noted for comedies" , "West London film studio, famous for its comedies" , "Studio location" , "West London borough" .)
