All three lines matched five numbers and were bought in County Durham. Lotto operator Camelot has not confirmed whether the three lines are from the same ticket or not.
The lucky winner, or winners, will have until July 8 to claim their prize.

The second prize is £10,000 a month for a year, for matching the five main numbers.
If no valid claim has been made on the prize by around two weeks after the draw, Camelot will reveal the general area in which the ticket was bought to encourage tickets to be checked but to allow the winner to remain anonymous if they wish.
