My turn — quiet! (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gosh

'my' is the definition.
(both are expressions of surprise)

'turn quiet' is the wordplay.
'turn' becomes 'go' (a person's move in a board game).
'quiet' becomes 'sh' ('sh' is used to tell someone to be quiet).
'go'+'sh'='GOSH'

(Other definitions for gosh that I've seen before include "Wow!" , "Exclamation of surprise" , "Well I'm blowed!" , "Fancy that!" , "Christmas" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
