Nude show reviewed: "Blubber Bums" (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hobos

'bums' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'nude show reviewed blubber' is the wordplay.
'nude' means to look at the middle letters (the word is stripped of its outer letters).
'reviewed' says the letters should be written backwards.
'blubber' becomes 'sob' (I've seen this in another clue).
The middle of 'show' is 'ho'.
'sob' back-to-front is 'bos'.
'ho'+'bos'='HOBOS'

(Another definition for hobos that I've seen is " Tramps".)

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