Ticket holders across the country were urged to check their tickets after no one came forward to claim the £123,458,008 prize when news someone had the magic numbers broke last Tuesday. The win is the third largest in EuroMillions history and the fourth to be secured in the UK this year. Patrick and Frances Connolly, from Northern Ireland, won £114.9 million in the EuroMillions New Year's Day draw, Ade Goodchild, from Hereford, banked £71 million in March, and an anonymous ticket-holder scooped £35.2 million in April.

The winning numbers on that date were 25, 27, 39, 42 and 46, with Lucky Stars 11 and 12. Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at the National Lottery, said previously: 'It seems this massive winner might not even be aware that they are one of the biggest National Lottery winners ever. 'A week has slipped by and winners may have been going about their everyday routine completely unaware of this amazing change of fortune. 'The ticket was bought in-store so players should check the places they usually keep their tickets and make sure they've checked them all. We have the champagne on ice and our fingers crossed that the lucky winner comes forward to claim their win soon. 'Our player services team are on stand-by waiting to meet the lucky winner or winners. They have great expertise in helping winners embrace life-changing wins and making sure that they are able to start to enjoy their new found wealth as quickly as possible. 'They will be on hand every step of the way to guide the ticket-holder through the winning experience.'
