One lucky National Lottery player became a millionaire on Boxing Day after scooping the second largest prize. Wednesday's Lotto jackpot will be an estimated £5.1 million after no-one won the top prize in Saturday's draw.

But the next biggest prize of £1 million, for five numbers and the bonus ball, was won by one lucky player, for the perfect Boxing Day boost.

Some 53 ticket holders bagged £1,750 after matching five of the six numbers. The winning numbers were 26, 43, 44, 46, 52, 55 and the bonus number was 06.

Set of balls eight and draw machine Lancelot were used. No-one matched all five numbers to win the Lotto HotPicks, although three people picked four out of five to win £13,000 each.
