A couple from the Scottish Borders has won half of the historic £66 million lottery jackpot.

David and Carol Martin, from Hawick, are celebrating their success at an event in Edinburgh today.

Carol worked in a local chemists for most of her life, and David has worked the last 8 years for Borders Care And Repair (part of Eildon Housing Association).

The rollover Lotto prize was split between two tickets that had all six winning numbers from Saturday's draw - 26, 27, 46, 47, 52 and 58.

Saturday's massive jackpot - the biggest ever - was the result of 14 rollovers.

New rules stipulated that once the amount went over £50 million it would have been shared between the next tier down of winners if no-one matched all six numbers.

On Monday, Lotto operators Camelot said the holder of one of the winning tickets had still not come forward and urged players to check their tickets again.
