A truly life-changing amount of money.

Know any couples in Armagh? Couples who play the EuroMillions? Now might be the best time to give them a friendly phone call. A couple in the Ulster county have won no less than €127.5million after playing Tuesday's New Year's Day EuroMillions draw. The winning numbers were 01, 08, 11, 25, 28  with Lucky Stars 04 and 06. In 2005, Dolores McNamara became one of Ireland's richest women when she won the jackpot of €113million. This week's €127.5million jackpot topples that figure and is the fourth highest prize ever won in the EuroMillions by anybody based in the United Kingdom. The couple in question have not yet been publicly named. However, the BBC has reported that the lucky pair's identities will be revealed at a press conference in Belfast on Friday morning.
