Every Friday, for as long as I can remember its been Euromillions night. The lottery draw used to be on TV; however, sadly these days the only real way to see the draw is online. I guess programmes like Love Island are more popular.
Fear not tho, we've got all the build up to tonight's draw right here. We'll cover everything from the jackpot estimate to your chances of winning.
As long as you are aged 16 or over you can play both the Euromillions as well as Lotto and if you want to get involved there is still time. Tickets are available up until 7.30pm tonight. To buy a ticket (or two) you'll need to head over to the National Lottery site, pick 5 numbers from 1 to 50 and 2 Lucky Stars from 1 to 12. Then it's over to the lottery gods to decide whether or not you can quit your job and travel the world forever.
