But things are hotting up for Gilbert, known to all as 'Grumpy'. Now that times are becoming harder and staff made redundant, he has to perform all kinds of tasks, not only catching thieves, but caging the gorilla and tidying the warehouse, otherwise he might find himself surplus to requirements too!
