Lotto winners take shine to Big Apple

The lucky winners of the National Lottery’s Big Money Game TV gameshow jetted off to New York yesterday morning for the trip of a lifetime.

For many of the 39 winners and their guests, the six-day luxury break will mark their first time visiting the Big Apple.

The group will stay at the Sofitel Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, just a short stroll from Times Square, the Empire State Building, and Fifth Avenue.
