£101 million lottery prize won by Cambridgeshire couple

A couple from Cambridgeshire have won the UK's third biggest lottery prize of over £101 million and will go public this afternoon, Camelot said.

The win of £101,203,600.70 makes the couple better off than Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne (£95 million), and Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin (£48 million).
A National Lottery spokesman said they were looking forward to welcoming the winner to the millionaires' club.
The biggest-ever EuroMillions prize was a £161 million jackpot won by Colin and Chris Weir, from Largs, Scotland, earlier this year. In October 2010 an anonymous British winner scooped £113 million in the draw.
The winning numbers were 18, 26, 34, 38 and 42. The Lucky Star numbers were 8 and 5.
