Finished hovering around (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

over

'finished' is the definition.
('over' can be similar in meaning to 'finished')

'hovering around' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'OVER' is hidden in the letters of 'hovering'.

(Other definitions for over that I've seen before include "The delivery is concluded" , "Six balls in cricket" , "Given too much money" , "Finished, concluded" , "bridge?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
