Comments:

• The draw used ball set T3 in the Excalibur 1 machine
• The average prize was £ 8.80. One in every 15.3 tickets won a prize (=6.54% of players).
• The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 4 wins totalling £30.
• The fifth appearance of the number 23 has left the number 34 two adrift at the basement of both the main and winning frequency tables.
• The number 5 has now appeared seven times as a Thunderball, which is two more times than any other number.
• One ticket combination has now 13 prizes in the 59 Thunderball draws to date.
• This was the first time that all five main numbers (and, indeed, all six winning numbers) were odd.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 18th January 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
