Sensible review of time on death row? (4-2-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

down-to-earth

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

'review of time on death row?' is the wordplay.
'review of' indicates anagramming the letters.
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
't'+'on'+'death'+'row'='tondeathrow'
'tondeathrow' with letters rearranged gives 'DOWN-TO-EARTH'.

(Other definitions for down-to-earth that I've seen before include "Sensible - practical - realistic" , "Practical, no-nonsense" , "where Newton's apple fell?" , "Far from assuming" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
