Not demanding the Italian should go in front (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

facile

'not demanding' is the definition.

'the italian should go in front' is the wordplay.
'the italian' becomes 'il' (the in Italian).
'should go in' is an insertion indicator.
'front' becomes 'face' (face is a kind of front).
'il' put inside 'face' is 'FACILE'.

(Other definitions for facile that I've seen before include "Simplistic" , "Easy, simple" , "Easy but glib" , "Easy to accomplish" , "Arrived at without due care or effort" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
