Appeal for £2.5m unclaimed ticket

The search is on for the owner of an unclaimed National Lottery ticket bought in east London worth £2.5m

So far nobody has come forward to collect the £2,561,750 prize from February 7's Lotto draw.

The winning ticket, matching all six numbers - 6, 16, 18, 29, 30 and 35 - was sold in Barking, east London.

If no-one comes forward before the August 6 deadline, the prize money and the interest - nearly £64,000 - will go to the lottery's good causes fund.
