British family scoops €29.6m in EuroMillions draw

A family syndicate jumped into fourth place on the National Lottery’s Rich List when they won €29.6m in Friday’s EuroMillions draw, the UK's lottery company Camelot said today.

The four-strong syndicate from Dorking, Surrey in England, had one of just two jackpot-winning tickets in Friday’s EuroMillions draw.

They shared the jackpot with a second ticket-holder in France.

The family will share their good news at a press conference in Surrey tomorrow hosted by former GMTV presenter Fiona Phillips.

The winning EuroMillions ticket had the numbers 11, 26, 29, 49, and 50 and the lucky star numbers 4 and 7.
