Comments:

The draw used ball set T7 in the Excalibur 5 machine

The average prize was £14.79.

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 39 wins totalling £285.

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 GMT on Monday 16th February 2009 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Thunderball: #786 (Saturday 23rd August 2008) [No jackpot winners]
Previous Thunderball: #784 (Saturday 16th August 2008) [1 jackpot winner]
