Here are the five winning areas

They have now revealed where the matching tickets were bought in a last-ditch bid to find the winners.

Punters in Bolton, Northumberland, Shropshire, North Lanarkshire and Camden have all scooped £1million lotto prizes.

But the winners in Bolton and Northumberland have less than two months left to claim their prizes before the May deadline.

The Shropshire winner needs to come forward by July, and the players in North Lanarkshire and Camden have until August.

You should contact the National Lottery directly if you think your ticket matches the winning numbers.

If no winner comes forward by the deadline, their prize will be donated to lottery charities including food banks.

It comes as mystery surrounds the identity of a Brit who scooped a massive £195million EuroMillions jackpot.

The UK ticket-holder pocketed the massive prize after it rolled over in July 2022.

How to check if you have a winning ticket

THIS is the National Lottery’s official guidance for making a claim on a £50,000+ jackpot:

If you played online, call the National Lottery Customer Care Team on 0333 234 44 33 to claim your prize.

Lotto bosses will arrange for you to receive your prize in person at an agreed location such as your home or a Regional Lottery Centre.

If you bought your ticket at a shop, call the National Lottery on the same number.

You will be required to provide proof of identity and complete a claim form in order to receive your prize.

EuroMillions players in the UK have 180 days – roughly six months – to claim any prizes.
