This presented a bit of a challenge. The first rig that I made did not get the automatic weighting to work correctly. When I rotated the spine, the bone moved but the torso stayed in place. I fiddled with it for a while then decided to just rig it all over again. What ever I did wrong the first time didn’t happen the second time. The second time was a charm and all the bones move the mesh as expected. Here is my Cube Dude taking his first step (well at least one frame of what could be a step).

Really enjoying seeing your progress on this course Richard, your cube dude (unnamed?) is making great strides! 
Will you be sharing a little video of his first steps?
Heh Heh, that is the plan Rob.
