I did think he had won before. It was in 2011 though.
The October winner is Mike Watson and he has a member of the Stoke on Trent hierarchy to thank.

This got me thinking about the likelihood of winning more than once.
The computer system I set up starts in 2010, and here are the stats.

ONE number has won SEVEN times.

• If you ask nicely, perhaps they will sell you this number.
All you have to do is find out which number, and whose number it is!

THREE numbers have won FOUR times.
ELEVEN numbers have won THREE times.
TWENTY numbers have won TWICE.
SEVENTY numbers have won ONCE.

Which leaves NINETY FIVE numbers (including mine!) which have not won at all.
So if you have never won, you’re in good company!

However, TWO numbers have won the £1000 prize TWICE!
