Tearfully sentimental (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

maudlin

'tearfully sentimental' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for maudlin that I've seen before include "Over-emotional" , "Schmaltzy" , "Tearfully sentimental, probably drunk" , "Mushy and emotional" , "Effusively or insincerely emotional" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
