April 24 2018. A UK ticket-holder stakes a claim for a £121.3 million Euromillio­ns jackpot. The winner has a fortune to almost match Adele’s £125 million or DJ Calvin Harris’s £120 million.

Neil Trotter, from south London, won nearly £108 million, going from former car mechanic to multimilli­onaire in March 2014.

A couple from Cambridges­hire, Dave and Angela Dawes, won more than £101 million on their third go on the Euromillio­ns draw in October 2011. Mr Dawes said he “didn’t sleep a wink” the night of the win, as it was too late to call Camelot after the couple checked their numbers.
