Ridiculous pretence (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

charade

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for charade that I've seen before include "sham" , "Acted riddle - pretence" , "Absurd pretence to create a good impression" , "Total pretence (as in game)" , "Pretence; parlour game" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
