Getting closer (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nearing

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">getting closer</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(getting nearer)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for nearing that I've seen before include "Approaching" , "Drawing closer to" , "Moving towards" , "Getting close to" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the Penny Press and The Telegraph.
