First appearance (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

debut

onset

'first appearance' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for debut that I've seen before include "First appearance in society" , "Initial appearance" , "First attempt" , "Start -- launch" , "where one began" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the Penny Press, The Sun, The Independent, the Evening Standard, The Times, The Mirror, the USA Today and the Sydney Morning Herald.
