Apparently, he didn't bother to cash his pay cheques. =A0When he died, a

Yes; it seems he spoke fluent French and was fond of the sun, sea, food, wine and talent around Marseilles. And he couldn't be bothered to cash his pay cheques because he was too busy anonomously indulging himself. There was obviously a side of Benny that I hadn't appreciated.
Poofter indeed!
Women only, from what I've read.
Exactly.
They do, but the debt remains valid and actionable for 6 years. The executors just had to request replacements for all the cheques less than 6 years old.
Marseilles??? I hope it wasn't Arab boys he was interested in!
Or too rich to need them.
Excellent.
He could have donated the money to charity, though. Since cheques are only valid for 6 months from the date of issue, I wonder if the money remained with the TV company?
Ah, right. There's no way of knowing if his heirs did that.
