Shameful, dirty (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sordid

This clue is a double definition.

'shameful' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'dirty' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

(Other definitions for sordid that I've seen before include "'Seamy, seedy (6)'" , "Filthy - base" , "Seedy, foul" , "Morally degraded" , "Squalid and depraved" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
