There's talk of other people's (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

theirs

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'people's' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'there's talk of other' is the wordplay.
'talk' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'of other' becomes 's' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'there' is a homophone of 'their'.
'their'+'s'='THEIRS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for theirs that I've seen before include "Belonging to those people" , "Owned by them" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
