I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

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

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for giant that I've seen before include "Designating big" , "Gargantuan" , "Very big person" , "James Dean film (big one!)" , "Titan" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
