Skinny tall person (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beanpole

(Other definitions for beanpole that I've seen before include "Lanky type" , "runner climbing here" , "pea stick" , "Noble ape like lanky fellow" , "No, be pale if as tall and thin as this" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
