Polite from of address for a woman (5)

I believe the answer is:

madam

(Other definitions for madam that I've seen before include "Woman with status - girl with bad manners" , "Bossy girl" , "Courteous form of address to a woman" , "Woman running a brothel" , "Leader of House of Congress" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
