Lotto jackpot draw halted by technical glitch
The Lotto draw was halted after six numbers were drawn but before the bonus ball due to a technical fault, delaying the £10.5m jackpot results until a redraw under supervision.
- At 8pm the National Lottery Lotto draw was halted during a quadruple rollover with a £10.5m jackpot after six numbers were drawn, pausing the live feed.
- Following the feed cut, Allwyn said the draw was paused after the bonus ball failed to drop and would resume with an alternative machine under independent adjudication.
- Before the feed cut, the six Lotto numbers 40, 28, 4, 59, 9, 42 were drawn, and the Thunderball numbers 9, 11, 13, 28, 34 with Thunderball 13 aired after a 15-minute delay.
- A spokesman for Allwyn said it expects to complete the Lotto draw and publish verified results on national-lottery.co.uk later this evening and apologised for the delay, while the Thunderball draw aired roughly 20 minutes late at 8.35pm.
- The interruption follows an October 10 EuroMillions glitch, and Downdetector recorded a spike with over 200 outage reports from viewers around the 8pm draw.
