Slightly tame show broadcast (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

somewhat

'slightly' is the definition.
(I know that slightly can be written as somewhat)

'tame show broadcast' is the wordplay.
'broadcast' indicates an anagram (letters scattered or cast around).
'tame'+'show'='tameshow'
'tameshow' is an anagram of 'SOMEWHAT'.

(Other definitions for somewhat that I've seen before include "Rather, a little" , "To some degree, sort of" , "To a small or moderate degree" , "To a certain extent" , "Moderately" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
