Comments:

The draw used ball set T6 in the Excalibur 5 machine

The average prize was £10.70.

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 48 wins totalling £435.

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 Monday 12th October 2009.

Next Thunderball: #854 (Saturday 18th April 2009) [1 jackpot winner]
Previous Thunderball: #852 (Saturday 11th April 2009) [No jackpot winners]
