Calm and collected when out of control? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cool

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

This could be a double definition.

'calm and collected' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'out of control?' is the second definition.
'cool' can be an answer for 'control?' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'out of' bit.

'when' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cool that I've seen before include "Quite cold" , "Moderate" , "Chilled" , "Not hot or warm - just unexcited" , "Unemotional; excellent" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
