Husky (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hoarse

'husky' is the definition.
(I know that husky can be written as hoarse)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for hoarse that I've seen before include "Of voice, rough and dry" , "Hackney" , "As if with a sore throat" , "in need of throat spray?" , "(Of voice) rough/harsh" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Independent, The Guardian, The Sun, the Evening Standard and The Times.
