Remote is broken -- it's annoying (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tiresome

'annoying' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'remote is broken' is the wordplay.
'broken' indicates an anagram.
'remote'+'is'='remoteis'
'remoteis' is an anagram of 'TIRESOME'.

'it's' is the link.

(Other definitions for tiresome that I've seen before include "Wearying" , "Boring, annoying" , "So metier may be boring (8)" , "Fatiguing, tedious" , "Like a pain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Telegraph.
