“Fellow of infinite jest” referred to in Hamlet (6)

I believe the answer is:

yorick

(Other definitions for yorick that I've seen before include "Character in 15 down" , "Funny fellow" , "said to be poor" , "A fellow of infinite jest (Hamlet)" , "Skull in 'Hamlet'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
