A UK-based ticketholder won nearly £41m in Friday night's Euromillions draw, organiser Camelot has revealed.
No-one has yet come forward to claim the rollover jackpot prize of £40,627,241.
Friday's winning numbers were 2, 10, 22, 27 and 28, and the winning Lucky Star numbers were 6 and 8.
The total is the seventh biggest UK lottery win. The record is held by Colin and Chris Weir from Scotland, who won £161m on Euromillions last July.
The win is the latest in a string of lucky tickets for people across Great Britain.
Last month two men from Aberdeen each picked up £1m seven days apart from one another, and a 29-year-old professional cage fighter from Neath in South Wales won a similar amount, but took over two weeks to find his winning ticket while the prize lay unclaimed.
