Comments:

The draw used ball set T7 in the Excalibur 5 machine

The average prize was £ 5.49.

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 42 wins totalling £290.

From Saturday 12th July 2003 onwards, Camelot has completely refused to issue per-draw sales figures for any of their individual games, despite continuously doing so for more than 8 years prior to that date. They blamed the media for only concentrating on the main Lotto game sales (which have been falling steadily for years), which seems to be a poor excuse to me.

Prizes won in this draw must be claimed within 180 days i.e. by 5.30pm BST on Wednesday 14th June 2017.

Next Thunderball: #1999 (Saturday 17th December 2016) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Thunderball: #1997 (Wednesday 14th December 2016) [No jackpot winners]
