Dallicott, near Bridgnorth – yours for £8.5 million

And players getting three numbers could see prizes more than trebled from £30 to £100.

Lottery organisers have said tonight's estimated £12.9 million jackpot must be won, and if no-one banks the full amount it will be used to boost the smaller prizes.

However, if somebody does get all six main numbers they will take the full £12.9 million.

Andy Carter, The National Lottery’s senior winners’ adviser, said the jackpot would enable the winner ot put in a bid for Jennifer Lopez’s £13 million apartment in Manhattan's fashionable Park Avenue.

Closer to home, the Grade II listed Dallicott, near Bridgnorth, set in 444 acres of its own grounds, is on the market for £8.15 million.
