Answer Explanation

The answer to the clue, Mooring; Presenter is ANCHOR. The word "anchor" is a term that can have dual meanings, which correspond to the two parts of the clue:

• "Mooring": An anchor is a heavy object attached to a rope or chain that is dropped to the bottom of a body of water to keep a boat or ship from drifting away. In this context, "mooring" refers to the action of securing a vessel in place using an anchor.
• "Presenter": In television, broadcasting, or live events, an "anchor" is a person who serves as the main host or presenter. They are responsible for introducing segments, conducting interviews, and guiding the audience through the program.

Therefore, the word "anchor" fits the clue "Mooring; Presenter" because it encompasses both meanings: securing a boat (mooring) with an anchor and serving as a host or presenter.
