Billed by Dave himself as the “first Hollywood film ever to premiere outside London”, the debut showing was attended by Rory Kinnear and Jo Hartley, who plays Dave’s wife Nicola, as well as MPs for Burnley and Pendle, Anthony Higginbotham and Andrew Stephenson. But it was an excellent, tense and warm-hearted climax to an inspiring film. Who knows, maybe life will imitate art, and the Bank of Dave will finally become a reality after all? Watch this space. BSAL opened its doors in 2011 and was Dave's response to what he perceived as a broken banking system. While not a bank but rather an independent lending business, BSAL lends money to people and businesses who were unsuccessful in applying for loans at high street banks. While producers have of course polished and added elements to the Netflix hit to make it more entertaining, the business does exist in real life. Called Burnley Savings & Loans (BSAL), it is trading under the slogan “Bank of Dave!" at 30 Keirby Walk.Frost, Caroline (17 July 2012).

Not only did Def Leppard not play the concert, the concert itself never happened, and the funds were never raised – part of the reason why the Bank of Dave isn’t actually a real bank yet. On Dave's loan company being more important than ever during the cost of living crisis, Kinnear said "But there’s a limited amount of cash. So, do other people have the energy to create a similar thing? To show there’s a fairer way, rather than people just being cut off… Shows you the limitations of the capitalist system – that if you can’t pay, you’re out." He added "I don’t know what the alternative is. I don’t have the answers, nor the energy. But we need to flag this up. It will be the death of us as a race if the apogee of human existence remains to own a private jet. That’s what we’re selling. That’s what we consider success to be. And everyone who involves themselves in the selling of that formula, well, I’d ask them to reconsider. Or to at least consider…" The humour that filtered through coupled with the practical nuggets of sage advice applicable in any industry/ business/ venture was much appreciated.

This concert is what leads Dave to be able to set up his own bank after securing the first banking licence to be issued in 150 years. However, in real life, that's not strictly true as it's not really called the Bank of Dave. In a warning to those saving for retirement, a cautious investor asks: How could my 'safe' pension fund plummet by 30% - a year before I retire? Chris Foggin, director of the film, said: 'I was immediately drawn to this story about the triumph of community, and I'm delighted to be working with such a wonderful cast. I truly believe the world needs films like this.' Dave's argument is that banking works when it does what it was created to do centuries ago: help grow local economies through direct evaluation of value and risk. He claims, implicitly and sometimes explicitly, that despite "Big Data" and computational analysis, global banks simply don't care about the data that makes solid value/risk decisionmaking possible and useful. He makes a pretty solid evidentiary case, as he describes taking on a series of small businesspeople who'd been rejected for financing by their banks.He took matters into his own hands, setting up a bank, presenting a hugely successful and award-winning Channel Four programme and publishing a best-selling book, though there were plenty of big hurdles along the way. Officially, it's Burnley Savings and Loans and Dave is still on a mission to become a UK regulated bank. Speaking to The Guardian in 2012, he claimed that a City expert told him that "if I use the word deposit or say I'm a bank then I will go to prison".
