National Lottery results - Winning numbers for Saturday May 18 and Thunderball results

Saturday's £11.6million National Lottery jackpot is a special event - because it cannot roll over, but is a 'must be won' draw.

That means if no-one matches all six main numbers the eight-figure lottery jackpot will be shared by all cash winners, giving them an even bigger prize.

What would you do with all that cash if you won? Retire? Buy a luxury home in another country? Travel the world? Give it all to charity? Lots of these options would be available to you, of course - and some big decisions ahead.

Matching three main numbers would see a prize of £100 instead of £30, for example, The Mirror reports .

The winning Lotto numbers are 7, 22, 23, 26, 31 and 54. The bonus ball is 3.

The winning Thunderball numbers are 9, 15, 16, 30 and 34. The Thunderball is 8.
