The winner of a £20 million British lottery jackpot has come forward after lottery operators Camelot issued an appeal.

It is not yet clear if the ticket, which was sold in the North, was bought by one person or by a syndicate.

If it was won by an individual, the £20,100,472 (€30.2m) jackpot would be the biggest prize yet won by a single person in the lottery. 

A spokesperson for the lottery operators said that it could only be revealed that the ticket had been claimed, but that more details would emerge in due course.
