Comments:

The draw used ball set T4 in the Excalibur 5 machine

The average prize was £11.48.

The prior history of the jackpot ticket included 51 wins totalling £495.

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 GMT on Monday 15th February 2010.

Next Thunderball: #890 (Saturday 22nd August 2009) [1 jackpot winner]
Previous Thunderball: #888 (Saturday 15th August 2009) [No jackpot winners]
