STAFF at the Somerfield store in Martongate, Bridlington, finally had the chance to get their own back on the boss for Children In Need.
Manager Dave Mitchell was locked in a cage and made to wear a green tutu by staff at the store, with customers encouraged to donate money to the BBC charity.

The store also sold cakes and buns baked by in-store baker Matt Smith to help raise over £250.

Helen Southgate, who organised the event, said: "It was great fun to see Dave in the cage.

"The staff had a great time and so did the customers who came in - there were a few funny looks.

"One elderly gentleman came said it had really brightened up his day to have a chuckle at Dave, which is nice to know.

"We will definitely do more fund-raising because it feels great not only to raise money for charity, but it's also a lot of fun."
