Steve Thomson says he will keep working and is “not the type to sit still”

A builder and a shop worker have been named as the winners of a £105m EuroMillions jackpot.

Steve Thomson, 42, and his wife Lenka, 41, from West Sussex, were the sixth jackpot prize winners in the UK this year, operator Camelot said.

Their ticket won £105,100,701.90 on 19 November, the 25th anniversary of the National Lottery’s first draw.

Mr Thomson said when he realised he had won that he felt he was “on the verge of having a heart attack”.

The winning numbers picked were 8, 10, 15, 30 and 42, with 4 and 6 selected for the Lucky Star numbers.

‘I’ll be there’

Mr Thomson, from Selsey, said: “I started shaking a lot. I knew it was a really big win but didn’t know what to do. I think I was on the verge of having a heart attack.”

He said he would not be giving up his job straight away.

“Once I am over the shock I will need to keep doing something, I am not the type just to sit still. My business partner knows that if he needs a hand, I’ll be there.”
