EUROMILLIONS returns TONIGHT offering a lucky Brit the chance of winning a whopping ￡67M jackpot.

       It comes after no one scooped Tuesday's massive top prize of ￡55m - meaning tonight's prize has again rolled over.

       And on Saturday, the National Lottery draw will see a guaranteed ￡20 million jackpot after no-one took the top prize in that game on Wednesday.

       While no-one got all six main numbers, two ticketholders matched five numbers plus the bonus to win ￡1 million each.

       ‘I won ￡1m on the lottery at 22 and still shop at Asda & Primark’

       Roofer Jamie Heavens, then-22-year-old, went to work at his dad Mark’s roofing company in Dorset, near where he lives, and started his hands-on job.

       After being sent off to work on another site, he stopped off at Romsey Services off the M27 for fuel and also bought a scratchard.

       “I scratched it off in a layby and was stunned when it revealed I’d won ￡1m,” he said.

       He kept it quiet from his colleagues – telling only his uncle and wife-to-be.

       However, despite winning big, Jamie said: “Danielle still buys me jogging bottoms from Primark. I go out and graft everyday so she knows I will get them filthy. There’s no point in her getting me really smart ones, they would just get wrecked.”

       Wife Danielle is still working as a receptionist at a garage whereas Jamie set up his own company, a roadside recovery service.

       ‘We hoped to win… and then we did’

       Like many people who play the lottery, Patrick and Frances Connolly “always hoped” they would win but didn’t have high hopes.

       But two years ago, on New Year’s Day, they scooped ￡114,969,775 on the EuroMillions after playing every week for years.

       When the couple, from County Armagh, Northern Ireland, found out about the “life-changing” sum, they modestly celebrated with “a cup of tea and a hug”.

       They told ITV: “I always hoped we would win the lottery one day, but when we did, it would be just our luck that lots of others would win on the same day with the same numbers too.

       “Never in my wildest dreams did I think we would ever win almost ￡115 million.”

       The odds of winning the Millionaire Maker

       According to the EuroMillions website, there is a 1 in 1,900,000 chance that a player could win the Millionaire Maker game on a Tuesday.

       This shrinks to 1 in approximately 2,250,000 if there is a rollover – meaning no one has won the previous draw’s jackpot.

       On a Friday, it’s estimated that there is a 1 in 2,950,000 chance of winning a guaranteed ￡1million.

       If there is a quadruple rollover, the odds could fall to 1 in 3,400,000.

       Winning the game depends on the number of payslips sold so the odds fluctuate from game-to-game.

       The odds can also change if there is a special event.

       In March 2019, EuroMillions created 40 UK millionaires in a one-off special draw.
