Saturday also sees the draw for the Thunderball. Tonight's Thunderball numbers are 7, 16, 25, 28, 31 and the Thunderball is 7. Entry for Saturday night's Lotto cost £2 and players need to pick six numbers between 1 and 59 - or generate them with a lucky dip - before 7.30pm. The draw is announced at approximately 7.45pm.
There are multiple chances to win the Lotto as draws take place every Saturday and Wednesday. To play the game, you choose six numbers from one to 59 or choose a lucky dip. It costs £2 per play.
As well as being in with a chance of winning serious cash, playing the Lotto also helps raise around £30m each week for UK good causes. You can buy a ticket on draw days, Saturdays and Wednesdays, until 7.30pm. Lottery operators Camelot announced in the summer that one EuroMillions player had claimed the incredible £111.7million jackpot from one special draw.
The unnamed lucky player is among the top 12 biggest winners in lottery history. National Lottery is regulated by the Gambling Commission, and is currently operated by Camelot Group, to which the licence was granted in 1994, 2001 and again in 2007, but will be operated by Allwyn Entertainment Ltd from 2024.
