Crossword Genius

More stuffy person finishing (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

closer

This clue is a double definition.

'more stuffy' is the first definition.
('close' can be a synonym of 'stuffy')

'person finishing' is the second definition.
(someone closing something up)

(Other definitions for closer that I've seen before include "Nearer or more penny-pinching" , "more reticent" , "more precise" , "not so remote" , "Stuffier" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
