As well as the jackpot winner, there were four players from across the continent - two from the UK, one from Spain and one from Portugal - who matched five main numbers plus one Lucky Star to land £159,392 (€244,777) each.

The other prizes given away ranged from £2.90 (€4.50) for matching two main numbers to £21,213 (€32,577) for matching five main numbers, and there were over 1.7 million winning participants in total.
