Lottery joy for six winners in UK
EuroMillions ticket
The jackpot reached £125 million in February 2006
Six lucky UK ticket holders each won £6.9 million in Friday's EuroMillions lottery draw, Camelot said.

Nobody matched all seven numbers to win the £88 million jackpot, and the rollover jackpot was instead divided among those matching six numbers.

The Winning numbers were 22, 30, 34, 35, 44 and the Lucky Star numbers are 4 and 5.

Six people in the UK were among the 14 ticket holders who matched five winning numbers and one Lucky Star number.

Each has won £6,989,367.40.

EuroMillions made European lottery history in February 2006 when the jackpot reached a record-breaking £125 million.

The prize was shared between three ticket holders across Europe.

The UK's biggest EuroMillions winner to date is Angela Kelly, 40, from East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, who won a £35.4 million jackpot in August.
