Buffoon, jester (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fool

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">buffoon</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that fool is a type of buffoon)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">jester</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that jester can be written as fool)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for fool that I've seen before include "Part of 1 25 [KING LEAR]" , "Dupe - dessert" , "Jester or silly ass" , "Empty-headed person" , "Jester; dupe" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
