Comments:

The draw used ball set T7 in the Excalibur 5 machine

The average prize was £ 9.43.

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 20 wins totalling £180.

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.

Unclaimed prizes from this week expired at 5.30pm BST on Thursday 27th October 2005 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Thunderball: #441 (Wednesday 4th May 2005) [3 jackpot winners]
Previous Thunderball: #439 (Wednesday 27th April 2005) [1 jackpot winner]
