Re-post from yesterday.
28a Bristolian's girlfriend, alledgedly, the solver picked up? (3)
E?E
It has been suggested that the answer is EXE. Can't parse
Have looked at all the alternative words that would fit the word template;
ERE, EKE, EVE, EWE, EYE and I can't choose any that would fit the clue to my satisfaction.
I would love someone to parse a reasonable word to fit this clue.
