It's a strangely lacking clue, requiring GK, think HP or EW?

That’s three scientist/inventors in a row now, starting with Berners-Lee two weeks ago then Marconi last week. It’s feels a bit like an Only Connect “what comes fourth in the sequence” round ;-)

3d consider inserting two letters between the second and third letters of the solution and you get something for which a fish supper might be an example

Thanks jono. All clear now.
Harder than usual this week I thought. FWIW, my COD is 16, FOI 2, LOI 3.
