Channel Islands: Redrawn Christmas lottery winning numbers
Jon Taylor from the Channel Islands Christmas Lottery explains why the lottery had to be redrawn
The Channel Islands Christmas Lottery had to be redrawn after the draw was won by an unsold ticket that should not have been included.
The numbers for the original draw were declared null and void following the administrative error.
The Christmas lottery draw included numbers on tickets which had not been sold - including the number for the top prize.
The numbers have since been redrawn with the unsold ticket numbers not included.
The top prize of £630,852 was won in the redraw by a ticket with the number: 551270.
The Channel Islands Christmas lottery is a joint venture between the States of Guernsey and the Government of Jersey and they have admitted the error.
The Channel Islands Lottery said in a statement: "Unfortunately a batch of unsold tickets were initially included in the draw, which should have been excluded, and this was identified when alphanumerical checks on the initial winning numbers was concluded.
"The first run draw was therefore void, and the winning numbers were once again selected at random, including only those tickets that had been sold."
