00:00Hi, I'm digital reporter Amy Seddon and I recently got to chat to the actor Rory Kinnear
00:06who plays Lancashire man Dave in Bank of Dave 2 which comes out this weekend. Although my
00:12interview wasn't filmed, our photographer headed down to the Bank of Dave 2 premiere
00:16over the weekend and you can catch his quick chat with Rory next. Netflix did however send
00:22me the trailer for Bank of Dave 2 which you can watch afterwards.
00:27How does it feel being back in Burnley to launch the premiere today?
00:30It's absolutely fantastic. We couldn't have the premiere anywhere else, particularly after
00:33doing the first one here in Burnley as well. Why would you want to do it anywhere else
00:37as well?
00:38And how was it playing Dave again?
00:39It was like slipping back into the comfiest pair of pyjamas. It's funny to be playing
00:47the same part again. Often you do that in a fictional world but to be playing a real
00:51character twice, I haven't done it before. So it's funny obviously refreshing yourself
00:57with the accent, refreshing yourself with the behaviour but also remembering that it's
01:01as much me as it is Dave as well and to build the story as well.
01:06Did you get a warm welcome in Burnley?
01:08No, no, never. No absolutely we didn't and I think people recognised the fact that we
01:16portrayed the city in a positive light in the first film and that it obviously brought
01:22a fair bit of attention as well to the people and to the place. I think wherever we went
01:31people were obviously interested, they obviously knew what we were doing whereas we were able
01:35to go under the radar the first time around. So yeah, wherever we went there was a smile
01:40and a thumbs up.
01:41And have you enjoyed being in Burnley?
01:43Absolutely. I've done a bit of filming in the North West over the years and my dad was
01:49originally from Wigan so the last time I was up here I was able to go back to where he
01:55was born and see where he grew up which I'd never done before. So yeah, there's a family
01:59connection with the place as well.
02:01And what can people expect from this film?
02:03Well I think similar to the first film that sense of, you know, what's inspirational about
02:10it, I think why it chimed with people is the fact that it's about people sticking up for
02:16each other and remembering that people are individuals, communities are built with individuals
02:22and people rather than institutions and corporations and to try and remember that and to try and
02:28remember the human connection that we all crave.
02:41I'm Dave.
02:42Hello, I'm Banker Dave.
02:44Guilty as charged.
02:46I've got another bee in me bonnet.
02:48It's payday lenders.
02:49I'm making people's lives a living hell.
02:51I want to stop them.
02:52How do you plan on doing that?
02:54I've loaned 40 million quid and created jobs.
02:5740 million? That lot have lent over a billion and a half. That's thousands of people all
03:03across this country who've been taken advantage of.
03:06And you're close to 3,000 pounds.
03:09Are we ever going to be able to afford that?
03:13Dave Fishwick financed his business with money that came from the crimes that are destroying
03:19communities he claims to support.
03:21This is the payday loan companies.
03:23They're trying to shut down the Banker Dave.
03:25They're preying on the most vulnerable and desperate.
03:28And we, we are trying to do something about it.
03:31Looking for the offices of Snap Cash Advance.
03:33I'm going to need to ask you to leave.
03:35We must bring this Fishwick down.
03:38And old times are hard.
03:39We are sorry you're going through all this.
03:41But together...
03:42Come on everybody!
03:46We might just be a force to be reckoned with.
03:50Is he dead?
03:51Nope. Just sleeps like that.
