THE National Lottery offers Brits a chance to become millionaires, week in and week out, and last night millions had a crack at hitting the jackpot.
Last night's draw offered a jackpot of £2m for one lucky winner – but no one scooped the cash, meaning Saturday's top prize will be an estimated £4.1million.
Wednesday's winning Lotto numbers were 10, 4, 48, 50, 27, 30 and a bonus ball, 54.
Meanwhile, Wednesday night's Thunderball numbers were 31, 5, 39, 19, 38 and the Thunderball was 7.
The biggest ever Lotto winner was created in April 2016, when an anonymous player banked £35m
In January 2016, two ticket-holders walked away with £33m each.
