Ridiculous person (7)

I believe the answer is:

buffoon

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for buffoon that I've seen before include "Ridiculous person" , "Foolish person" , "'Clown, fool (7)'" , "comic" , "Jester" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
