As someone who is Burnley born and raised, the overblown 'bumbling, friendly northerner' stereotype is the only mark on what is quite a fun, easy watching and heartwarming film. Most of the humour is very base, mainly playing on the 'dumb, friendly north' Vs the 'Snobby, cold hearted south'. But under the surface of this low budget, quick watch film is a very real, very close to home look at the life of a true Burnley legend, and the troubles of the town and the surrounding area. If it casts some light on the town to the unaware, and to this story, then it's done it's job. Well worth a watch!

Having seen Dave on TV you can't help but love him & this film seems to capture his massive personality perfectly. The little man takes on the big banks to help his local community & charities. It's a feel good film that shows us Northerners are a friendly bunch & let's the Southerners know we mean business. Great cast, great acting & who doesn't love a bit of romance thrown in for good measure. This film has all the right ingredients to become a classic British that will stand the test of time. Sit back & enjoy. If you don't follow Dave on Twitter then I suggest you do as you'll see him make people's dreams come true.

I came across this one on Netflix, not having heard anything about it and was pleasantly surprised. It's the glorious, true story of the little man taking on the establishment. Self made Millionaire Dave Fishwick decides to start a bank in his home town of Burnley to help support local businesses,creating jobs and services for the community. In doing so he comes face to face with the banking establishment, who use all their dirty tricks to prevent him. In a way mirroring the sentiments of classics like It's a Wonderful Life, this film shows what can be achieved when people come together to take on the powers that be. An uplifting gem.
