Comments:

• The draw used ball set 8 in the Arthur machine and the average main Lotto prize was £24.66. One in every 54.9 main Lotto tickets won a prize (=1.82% of players).
• If all 13,983,816 ticket combinations were additionally purchased for the main Lotto game, they would have made a loss of £5,689,735.
• The prior history of the main Lotto jackpot ticket included one win of £10.
• This was the first time that all 6 main numbers had appeared as main numbers in previous draws.
• The numbers 17, 36 and 42 also appeared in Lottery #7. This was also the third time 17 and 42 had been drawn in the same lottery, which was a record for any pair of main numbers.
• This was the first week that 4 of the 7 winning balls were the same colour (blue).
• A single match for me yet again this week - no wins for me in the first 16 draws and my second batch of 8 weeks has run out. My subscription certificate for a year's worth of numbers came through - it starts from Lottery #19 onwards...
• £602,983 of unclaimed prizes (2.19% of the total prize pool) from this week expired at 11.00pm BST on Thursday 31st August 1995 and have been added to the National Lottery Distribution Fund.

Next Lottery: #17 (Saturday 11th March 1995) [2 jackpot winners]
Previous Lottery: #15 (Saturday 25th February 1995) [1 jackpot winner]
