Grotesque imitation (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

travesty

'grotesque imitation' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for travesty that I've seen before include "Burlesque, parody" , "Charade" , "Terrible distortion of something." , "Farcical imitation" , "False or distorted representation of something" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Times.
