I'm still not really clear why the £19,500 left to Kat in Harry's will has only just come to light, some 12 years after it was revealed he left £18,000 to Zoe....

Hmm Maybe Charlie had it and gave it to Moe during the holidays. Maybe Charlie thought it was best to not tell her as he knew she wouldnt accept it and only decided to give her it when he heard how she is struggling with money ?.

I've read elsewhere that it's the money that was left to Zoe, but that she doesn't want. I suppose interest would account for the £1,500 difference.

That could be it, Dazzle. Though that does mean Harry didn't actually leave it to Kat, so it's not quite the "blood money", Kat is making it out to be if Harry left it to his daughter.

Mind you, I can still perfectly understand why Kat wouldn't want to touch it. However, just tearing up the cheque doesn't mean the money is not still there.

mo had the cheque zoe got years back but never cashed or lodged it so mo said kat should use it zoe must not have wanted it for so long despite she is on the run too over den's murder

also charlie is or was in lanzarote but kat or mo said they left him the kids so where is he?

How can Max take the Arches, wouldn't any documents to be legal need both Ben and Phil's signatures

Ben has power of attorney meaning he can make any decisions, so no I don't believe he needs Phil's signature

If she got the cheque years ago it would no longer be valid. Cheques are only valid for six months. In any case, if it was made out to Zoe, Kat wouldn't be able to cash it.

Yes, that's right. That's the point of giving power of attorney.

its correct about the 6 months of course
and now amount is 1500 more.So been
somewhere to get interest?

So either it was banked in an a/c that
both Charlie and Zoe had access to
or if Zoe was still under 18 at time
could Charlie have been designated
guardian/trustee but there would
have to be paperwork ( cant cash/ deposit
other peoples cheques easily now because
of fraud/money laundering regs)

Or perhaps simplest reason- didn't
give plot a couple mins more thought
and come up with something plausible.
