Euromillions £113m Ticket Claimed

BBC: The winner of the UK's largest ever lottery ticket has been claimed and paid out, Camelot has announced.

The record-breaking £113m Euromillions Lottery jackpot prize followed a draw on 8 October.

The winner beat odds of more than 76 million to one to pick the winning numbers which were nine, 30, 35, 39, 46, with lucky stars six and eight.

The previous largest lottery winner in the UK was an anonymous player who scooped £84.4m in May.

Nigel Page and Justine Laycock, from Barnsley, Gloucestershire, previously broke the record in February after winning £56m on Euromillions.

According to the Sunday Times Rich List 2010, the ticket-holder could become the 589th wealthiest person in Great Britain. [Source: BBC] | Wednesday, October 20, 2010
