Comments:

• The draw used ball set T3 in the Excalibur 1 machine
• The average prize was £ 9.62. One in every 16.8 tickets won a prize (=5.94% of players).
• The prior history of the jackpot ticket included one win of £5.
• The 24th main number appearance of the number 25 has extended its lead at the top of the frequency to an impressive five. It now also joins the numbers 4 and 9 at the top of the winning number frequency table.
• At the other end of proceedings, the 8th appearance of the number 23 has left the number 24 three adrift at the basement of the main and winning number frequency tables.
• This was a record-equalling 5th consecutive draw where at least one jackpot prize was won.
• Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 23rd August 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.
