Early life
Gilbert was born in Carmarthen, Wales on 18 October 1968, as one of three siblings to two teacher parents. His father came from Ebbw Vale and his mother from Abertillery. He attended Maridunum Comprehensive School and went on to study languages at Exeter University. For the first three weeks, his extreme shyness meant that Gilbert could not eat with other students in the dining hall or even make friends with the student in the next room.
