Comic astounded, in camp in resort (5-2,8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stand-up comedian

'comic' is the definition.
(I know that stand-up comedian is a type of comic)

'astounded in camp in resort' is the wordplay.
'in resort' indicates an anagram (letters get re-sorted).
'astounded'+'in'+'camp'='astoundedincamp'
'astoundedincamp' with letters rearranged gives 'STAND-UP COMEDIAN'.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
