Comments:

The draw used ball set T3 in the Excalibur 1 machine

The average prize was £ 9.81.

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 40 wins totalling £475.

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 draw expired at 5.30pm BST on Monday 5th June 2006 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Thunderball: #504 (Saturday 10th December 2005) [1 jackpot winner]
Previous Thunderball: #502 (Saturday 3rd December 2005) [2 jackpot winners]
