A British lottery winner has netted a £73m jackpot on the EuroMillions draw.
The UK ticket-holder matched the numbers to claim the top prize.
The winning numbers in Friday night's EuroMillions draw were 30, 42, 04, 31 and 38, while the lucky star numbers were 11 and 02.
A National Lottery spokesman said: "This Bank Holiday has turned out to be truly memorable for one UK winner, not only will they enjoy the extra day off but they'll now also be banking a multi-million-pound cheque.
"This single UK ticket-holder will enter the exclusive top 10 on The National Lottery rich list - at number eight - and we've got the champagne on ice ready for the lucky winner to claim their prize.
"As well as offering a chance to win life-changing prizes, EuroMillions continues to help raise over £33m every week for National Lottery-funded projects across the UK."
Only last month car mechanic Neil Trotter scooped the UK's fourth largest ever EuroMillions win with the £107.9m jackpot.
Colin and Chris Weir, who won a £161m EuroMillions jackpot in July 2011, are still top of the list for UK lottery winners.
