But currency fluctuations mean the amount up for grabs for Brits has been fluctuating between £175million and £181.5million.

And if the markets are spooked further by No Deal fears, it could jump still higher if sterling again weakens in value today against the euro.

If one player wins the lot they will set a new lottery record and become Britain’s biggest winner so far — surpassing the previous record by £5million.

They would also be richer than singers Ozzy Osbourne and Adele, worth £150million each.

Andy Carter, of The National Lottery, said: “A UK winner would soar to the top of the rich list and make all their friends and families’ dreams come true.”
