Took a turn on Tuesday (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

got

'took' is the definition.
('get' can be a synonym of 'take')

'a turn on tuesday' is the wordplay.
'a turn' becomes 'go' (a person's move in a board game).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another (in a down clue, letters appear on others).
'tuesday' becomes 't'.
'go'+'t'='GOT'

(Other definitions for got that I've seen before include "came by" , "Acquired" , "Received; understood" , "Caught" , "Landed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
