In 2005[1], on which the date fell on a Wednesday, the Lottery numbers used by Lydia Belmont were drawn for the £16.2 million rollover jackpot. However, Bernie Wilson, in charge of the Henrik's lottery syndicate, had used that week's money for a down payment on a Mazda 323 instead of purchasing any lottery tickets.
