THREE Brits were made millionaires in Saturday’s £11.8 million National Lottery draw – despite no-one scooping the jackpot.
While no ticket-holders matched all six main numbers, three players matched five numbers and the bonus ball to win a whopping £1,043,000 each.

Wednesday’s lottery jackpot will be an estimated £2 million.
The winning Lotto numbers were 07, 14, 20, 29, 38 and 49 – and the bonus number was 42.
Set of balls 10 and draw machine Lancelot were used.
No players matched all five numbers to win the Lotto HotPicks, which uses the same numbers as the main draw, but 14 tickets matched four numbers to claim £13,000 each.
The winning Thunderball numbers were 18, 20, 24, 26 and 33 – and the Thunderball was 14.
No-one scooped the £500,000 top prize, but two players won £5,000 each for matching five numbers.
It comes as a man who won a £166,666 People’s Postcode Lottery jackpot said he knew he was going to win after an omen just hours before.
Tony Frater, 69, shared a £1million prize with five neighbours in Staplehurst, Kent – including his daughter Kelly.
Everyone in the winning postcode gets a share of the whopping cash sum.
Mum-of-two Kelly, 40, presented Tony with his cheque moments after scooping her own “life-changing” lotto prize.
But retired engineer Tony said he had already twigged the jackpot was coming his way.
Tony said: “The weirdest thing was that Abba’s song ‘Money, Money, Money’ came on the radio this morning.
“I said, ‘That’s an omen!’
