The delighted People’s Postcode Lottery winner joked, "We’ll definitely be having a wee glass of champagne to celebrate." That’s unlike English couple Alan and Marjorie Tyrie who had a cup of tea after discovering they had won a £1m UK Lotto prize.

Above anything though, Letitia is delighted that after her win, "It’s great knowing I won’t need to worry about paying anything off now."Also celebrating is Janice Ward, 50, who plans to spend some of her People’s Postcode Lottery windfall on the trip of a lifetime.
