TWO neighbours have each won £405,462 after playing People’s Postcode Lottery.

The pair, who live in Otley, each won the lion’s share of a £1 million prize after their postcode, LS21 1SW, was announced as the winner of the lottery’s weekly Millionaire Street prize today (Saturday, September 7).

One of them described the win as ‘life-changing’ and plans to celebrate by spending a night at The Ritz - the iconic five-star luxury hotel in London.

Both winners chose to remain anonymous after learning of their whopping win over the phone.

One of the shocked neighbours said: “No, I can’t believe it, seriously? This is massive, its life changing.” 

They added: “Oh my God, I nearly cancelled my ticket.” 

Now they have a luxurious treat in mind. 

They said: “I asked The Ritz if we could maybe book an afternoon tea or something, but we could even stay there, couldn’t we?” 

On spending their win, they added: “We’ll go out for a meal this weekend and then plan what we’re going to do. It just changes everything. I’m over the moon!” 

There was also plenty to celebrate for 435 players in the wider postcode area, LS21 1, who bagged cash wins ranging from £393 to £1,572.
