In the storyline about Nick stealing his Gran's money, we are supposed to believe that Nick's waitress friend withdrew it all from cash machines. Given that a typical daily limit is £250, it would take 320 days to get £80,000 out by that method - i.e. more than ten months! Since the inheritance from Archie only came through a month or so before Nick started "splashing the cash", it's further evidence of the scriptwriters thinking that viewers are stupid. Also, I don't think that there's a bank in this world whose fraud department wouldn't have contacted the account holder (Audrey) to query the frequency and scale of such cash withdrawals. Just saying.
