Gleamed (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shone

'gleamed' is the definition.
('shine' can be a synonym of 'gleam')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for shone that I've seen before include "Radiated, emitted light" , "did brilliantly" , "Excelled; glowed" , "Gave off light" , "Sparkled" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, the Newsday, the Evening Standard and the Universal.
