Current king in Hamlet murdered (7)

I believe the answer is:

thermal

(Other definitions for thermal that I've seen before include "Caloric" , "Rising current of warm air" , "Rising current (used by gliders)" , "Relating to heat" , "Column of rising air used by gliders" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
