If you are looking for a normal High Street bank offering savings and current accounts then you are limited to:-
Natwest / RBS
Norwich & Peterbourough a building society
Jyske Bank very expensive charges
Barclays, closing next year.
I'm not sure what services Newcastle offer.

Hi
You will need to open a Gib Account
UK cheques take forever to clear and are not widely accepted
UK credit / debit cards are not a problem

I've been informed that Nat West will now only open an account for you if you are RESIDENT in Gibraltar.
I live in Spain and work in Gibraltar and was told by my employer that I'd be able to open an account there but it seems I just missed the boat. As far as I know Nat West was the only bank left offering accounts to non residents working in Gib.
Still, if you are living in Gib you shouldn't have a problem.
If I am mistaken on this please feel free to point me in the right direction!
Thanks!
