Meet Sergeant Pinch

Very official, very by-the-book and very fed up with Axel. He takes keeping the canal safe extremely seriously and charges to every alarm blowing his whistle, so being fooled again and again wears his patience thin. Gruff on the outside, but he's the one who sets up the golden bell so the canal can trust a call for help again.
