Comments:

The draw used ball set T2 in the Excalibur 3 machine

The average prize was £ 9.83. One in every 24.9 tickets won a prize (=4.02% of players).

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 3 wins totalling £15.

The sixth appearance of the number 1 as the Thunderball has narrowed the gap to the most common Thunderball (the number 5) to one. It also became only third Thunderball to appear in two consecutive draws.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 11.00pm GMT on Thursday 1st February 2001 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Thunderball: #62 (Saturday 12th August 2000) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Thunderball: #60 (Saturday 29th July 2000) [1 jackpot winner]
