Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at the National Lottery, said: "What a night for UK EuroMillions players, as a single ticket-holder has scooped tonight's life-changing £55m EuroMillions jackpot!

"This is the second EuroMillions jackpot win in the UK so far this month, after another lucky ticket-holder won an incredible £111.7m in the draw on Friday June 2.

"Players are urged to check their tickets and to give us a call if they think they are tonight's lucky winner.

"Thanks to National Lottery players, £30m is generated every week for Good Causes across the country.

"This money supports projects across the nation, with a total of more than 670,000 grants - to projects both big and small - having been made across the UK to date."
