Scott hero (7)
I believe the answer is:
ivanhoe
'scott hero' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for ivanhoe that I've seen before include "romance" , "Scott's Crusading hero" , "Walter Scott's eponymous hero" , "Sir Walter Scott hero" , "Eponymous hero of famous novel by Walter Scott" .)
