Lotto results: Saturday's winning numbers for National Lottery £7.1million jackpot

These are the winning numbers that could make someone an overnight millionaire with the National Lottery's £7.1million double-rollover Lotto jackpot.

Ticket holders with six numbers could walk away with a share of the multimillion jackpot tonight, Saturday, May 21.

The winning numbers are: 12, 25, 37,48, 51 and 57 . The Bonus Ball is 8 .

Just last week a British couple from Gloucester, became the UK's biggest ever lottery winners after they scooped a £184,262,899 win with a single Euromillions ticket.

Married parents Jess, 44, and Joe Thwaite, 49, matched all seven numbers including two Lucky Star balls.

Jess who runs her own salon and Joe, a communication sales engineer, claim the first thing they bought was a wardrobe but immediately began searching for houses with "no price limit".

Most newsagents and supermarkets across the UK sell tickets from 8am to 11pm all year round.

But on draw day tickets can only be purchased up to an hour before.

Each ticket costs £2. The draws take place every Wednesday and Saturday evening from around 7.45pm.

To be in with a chance of winning, you simply pick five numbers between one and 50 - plus an additional two Lucky Star numbers from 1-12.

As well as changing the lives of the prize winners, the National Lottery funds projects all over the UK.

Since 2004, the Big Lottery Fund has distributed £9.4billion raised by the National Lottery to 130,000 "good causes" across the UK.

This charitable funding is raised directly from a slice of weekly ticket sales.

Lucky Dip tickets are a great option for people who find the pressure of choosing the winning numbers too much.

The Thunderball draws are held every Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.

Winners can scoop up to £500,000 from a £1 ticket.
