Embarrassment (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chagrin

'embarrassment' is the definition.
(I know that chagrin is a type of embarrassment)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for chagrin that I've seen before include "anything but delight" , "Discomfiture" , "Shame at one's failure" , "Feeling of annoyance and embarrassment" , "Feeling of vexation or embarrassment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and the Sydney Morning Herald.
