The winning numbers were 17, 28, 30, 38 and 44, while the Lucky Star numbers were 01 and 04.
A spokeswoman for Camelot said it had been a "busy day both in retailers and online".
The 16 winners, who matched all five main numbers and one lucky star, will receive £6,462,181.30 each.
Six of the winning tickets came from the UK, with five coming from France, two from Switzerland, and one each from Austria, Belgium and Portugal. Thats about right
No one winner but 16 peoples lives had been change... I think the lottery would be a lot more popular if more peoples lives could be changed rather than just one big winner.

Just think the interest on the money alone would be around 4 millions pounds a year before tax...

It's that quote from the movie "Wall Street" Hurls!  I don't play the lottery, you can either see it as an idiot tax or worse - a tax on the frenzied hopes of desperate men and women. |

I know, just not what I expect from you
I would dissagree with you there, the Lottery fund does lots of good in terms of Charitable funding. So it's by no means a tax, as the funds are used for worthy grants.
You're calling a lot of people stupid!

You're calling a lot of people stupid! Ha, shows what you think of taxes really! ;D So if it's given voluntarily and doled out by charities it's good, but if it's taken by the legitimate state and spent on essential services it's bad and to be avoided at all costs?! I agree that the Lottery fund does some good things, but that has little if anything to do with the reasons people play - it's a tax primarily on greed, and secondarily on desperate hope, and that is an indictment of a lot of people, yes. Unfortunately! Only stupid because the chances of winning are so infinitesimally small. But hey, if that's what people want to blow their cash on, I shall rein in my Commie tendencies...! |
