In an awkward predicament (2,1,3,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

up a gum tree

(Other definitions for up a gum tree that I've seen before include "In a difficult situation" , "In a sticky position" , "In a tight spot (like a koala?)" , "in trouble" , "Where koala may be" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
