Giant also upset shows sentimental feeling (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nostalgia

'sentimental feeling' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'giant also upset' is the wordplay.
'upset' is an anagram indicator.
'giant'+'also'='giantalso'
'giantalso' with letters rearranged gives 'NOSTALGIA'.

'shows' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for nostalgia that I've seen before include "fondly looking back" , "Longing for things past" , "Backward-looking sentiment" , "Love for the past" , "A sentimental longing of analogist" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
