I know they say only the independent adjudicator knows what is in the boxes but many times Noel has said "We do not want to see the 250 or the 100 thousand" and that is what is in the box.

The independant adjudicator is the only one who knows. Why would Noel want to know?

But...Noel *always* says they don't want to see that!

The real question should be does the BANKER know what's in the boxes?

Edited, if he did then he may not have offered Lucy a swap.

I don't think he does. Games such as Trevor's suggest that he might, seeing as his offer was so low and he only had 1p in his box, but then you also have games such as John G's, where he offered him £25,000 for a box that had £10 in it. (Actually I think he swapped for the £10, but his original box was something similarly rubbish.)

John G's original box had £250 in so it was similarly rubbish to what was in box 7!
