Comments:

The draw used ball set 7 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £ 5.21. One in every 10.5 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=9.51% of players).

If all 45,057,474 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £81,305,277.

The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included 37 wins totalling £885.

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. However, games with variable prize tiers such as the main Lotto can have their sales figures reverse-calculated to within a few pounds, which is what I have done.

Prizes won in this draw must be claimed within 180 days i.e. by 5.30pm GMT on Thursday 9th January 2025.
