Screwball (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

crackpot

'screwball' is the definition.
(I know that screwball can be written as crackpot)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for crackpot that I've seen before include "crazy type" , "Eccentric (colloq.)" , "Bats" , "Mad" , "Idiot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
