UK BINGO JACKPOT WINNER SILENCED
28/11/2007The Mecca Bingo club in Bedford made one of its members £100,000 richer as the lucky punter scooped the UK bingo national jackpot, reports the game's operating body.
While the fire safety worker states he is happy with the win, he could have difficulty in expressing his delight, as he claims to still be "gob-smacked".
Some of the money is to go towards clearing his debts, the winner tells National Bingo, while a new car is also likely to be on his shopping list.
"I was just happy when I realised I had won the house prize, let alone the big one," the 42-year-old adds.
The UK bingo playing population accounts for as much as eight per cent of all the nation's residents, according to figures from the operating body.
More than three million citizens play the game of chance at least twice a week.
