public. What a fantastic evening it was, Alan. Very ritsy. You wore a

suit. I tried to wear a suit. I haven't seen that many stars out

:00:39.:00:42.

in one night since I went to that astronomy course! You have been on

a course? I know. Who would have thought it.

:00:44.:00:47.

Saturday night. There were four very lucky winning

:00:59.:01:02.

tickets in the Lotto Superdraw that matched all six main numbers for a

:01:02.:01:05.

share of the massive �10 million prize. Each of those tickets is now

:01:05.:01:15.
:01:15.:01:19.

worth a staggering �2.5 million. Wow, not bad at all, is it?

:01:19.:01:28.

bad! Four multi-millionaires made just like that - that! You mean...

:01:28.:01:30.

That's right. You're always digging me out of a hole.

:01:30.:01:40.
:01:40.:01:42.

Ok, start up the first machine please, Julie. Right, then, start

:01:42.:01:50.

up the machines, Julie. Excalibur and set of balls eight

:01:50.:01:53.

were selected for us at random by Julie.

:01:53.:01:55.

Our draw team tonight is independent adjudicator Graham

:01:55.:01:57.

Nutman and drawmaster Julie Morrissey. On Saturday over 225,000

:01:57.:02:00.

tickets won a prize. Congratulations if you were a

:02:00.:02:10.
:02:10.:02:44.

weekend winner. OJ? Cheers. The As always this next ball could a

:02:44.:02:49.

make all the difference. Best of luck. Yes, it could make a huge

:02:49.:02:59.
:02:59.:03:11.

Remembrance Sunday is just a few days away, and it's at this time of

:03:11.:03:14.

year where many people are thinking of those who lost their lives

:03:14.:03:16.

through acts of war. The Big Lottery Fund's Heroes Return Grants

:03:17.:03:19.

enable World War Two veterans to return to places they served to

:03:20.:03:23.

honour the fallen. Someone who was awarded a recent grant was wireless

:03:23.:03:25.

operator Len Burritt who, thanks to Heroes Return, visited Egypt where

:03:25.:03:28.

he served in the 7th Armoured Division or Desert Rats. That's Len

:03:28.:03:32.

on the right there. Len worked closely with the commanding

:03:32.:03:36.

officers sending Morse code messages all over the world. Sadly,

:03:36.:03:40.

not all of the men Len served with returned, and he wanted to go back

:03:40.:03:45.

to Egypt and pay his respects. Whilst there he visited places he

:03:45.:03:48.

was stationed and laid wreaths for his commanding officer and mentor

:03:48.:03:50.

General Gott and another on behalf of Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall,

:03:51.:03:54.

whose father also served as a "Desert Rat". What a top man Len is.

:03:54.:03:57.

I believe funding is still available, OJ?

:03:57.:04:00.

It is, Alan. The Heroes Return scheme is open to veterans

:04:00.:04:03.

interested in applying for funding. For more information, head to the

:04:03.:04:07.

website and follow the links. Right. I think we're ready to find out the

:04:07.:04:09.

answer to tonight's big question. What's the meaning to life? No, we

:04:09.:04:12.

have the answer to that - 42. The big question we're talking about

:04:12.:04:21.

tonight is what will tonight's Lotto numbers be? Let's find out.

:04:21.:04:28.

All right. Before the draw, we want the score. What's in the jackpot?

:04:28.:04:32.

Tonight's jackpot has been estimated at �2.2 million. Not to

:04:32.:04:39.

be sniffed at. So let's get them going. OK. Release those big-money

:04:39.:04:44.

balls, Jules. We're using Excalibur and set of

:04:44.:04:53.

balls number one. On Saturday, over �19.9 million was won.
