Wince (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

cringe

flinch

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">wince</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for cringe that I've seen before include "Shrink in fear, embarrassment, or servility" , "Cower, shrink in fear" , "Shrink back, cower" , "Sneak" , "Recoil in embarrassment" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Mirror and The Independent.
