Sullen, bad-tempered (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

morose

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'sullen' is the first definition.
(both mean miserable)

'bad-tempered' is the second definition.
(morose means sad or in a bad mood)

(Other definitions for morose that I've seen before include "grouchy" , "Surly and unforthcoming" , "Sullen and ill-tempered" , "Sullen and gloomy" , "in a grumpy mood" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
