National Lottery: All South Yorkshire's big winners over the years as £1m prize is unclaimed

As the hunt is on for the winner of an unclaimed £1 million National Lottery prize, we've delved into our archives to look back at some huge lottery wins in and around Sheffield over the years.

National Lottery bosses are urging players to check their tickets after the draw on April 29, with a £1,054,214 prize as yet unclaimed.

To help track down the newly-made millionaire, the location of where the winning ticket was bought has been revealed as West Yorkshire.

The winner matched all six balls – 12, 31, 35, 41, 44 and 56 – as well as bonus ball 59.

Anyone not in possession of their ticket, for whatever reason, but who believes they have a genuine claim can still make a claim in writing to Camelot, but it must be within 30 days of the draw. The lucky ticket holder has until the end of October to come forward.

Here are some of the lucky winners from our region.
