TSB: The Story

‘The Story’ is a short film created to mark the then newly independent TSB bank launch. In the film, we learn about the bank’s founder, the Reverend Henry Duncan, and the history behind the building of the TSB bank, all in one seamless journey. AKA director Marc Craste took on the 2.5-minute film – devised and commissioned by Damon Collins at Joint London for cinemas & online – to announce TSB’s return to the UK high street. Reflecting the historic values of Rev Duncan, the film begins over a simple wooden table at the original Ruthwell Parish Bank branch in 1810. As time passes we see how the bank enabled local working people to build their lives and establish a fully functional community through years of prosperity and the expansion of businesses and livelihoods.
