Trite or banal (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

corny

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'trite' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'banal' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for corny that I've seen before include "Over-sentimental; trite" , "Banal and not amusing" , "Not original" , "Platitudinous" , "Hackneyed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Mirror.
