Show of great admiration (7)

I believe the answer is:

ovation

(Other definitions for ovation that I've seen before include "Prolonged applause" , "Round of applause, may be standing" , "Enthusiastic and loud applause (sometimes standing)" , "Period of sustained applause" , "Enthuiastic applause, often standing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
