Turn Tam out in a fit of rage (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tantrum

'a fit of rage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'turn tam out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'turn'+'tam'='turntam'
'turntam' is an anagram of 'TANTRUM'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for tantrum that I've seen before include "Pet, temper" , "Fit of ill-temper" , "Display of bad temper" , "Hissy fit" , "Spoilt brat's fit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
