Comments:

The draw used ball set 6 in the Lancelot machine and the average main Lotto prize was £27.01. One in every 60.1 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.66% of players).

If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £7,039,813.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included no wins.

Ticket sales were disrupted nationally for four minutes at about 4.30pm on Saturday, probably because road workers cut through a cable. Some retailers remained offline for up to an hour because of this.

Over 100 million tickets have now won a 3-match £10 prize since the lottery began.

There are now 7 ticket combinations that have won 10 prizes (all 3-match £10 wins) in the history of the lottery.

If your regular ticket contained the numbers 4, 11, 17 and 46, then you would have won 3 times (£10 each) in the last 4 weeks (and even matched a number in the week you didn't win) !

This was the first time that a 5-match prize was an exact multiple of £1,000 and only the second time that a won prize has been a multiple of £1,000 (the first occasion being the 5+bonus prize of Lottery #8 - the Super Draw jackpot that week was artificially rounded to £10m and wasn't won anyway).

Only one match on my first ticket (none on the second) this week unfortunately.

£740,096 of unclaimed prizes (2.40% of the total prize pool) from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 26th December 1996 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #86 (Saturday 6th July 1996) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Lottery: #84 (Saturday 22nd June 1996) [9 jackpot winners]
