A group of IT workers who work together in Liverpool have won a £45.5 million share of the Euromillions jackpot, sources said.

They are due to be unveiled at a press conference in Wirral tomorrow - suggesting some of the winners are from the borough.

The syndicate of seven or eight staff were unaware they had won when they turned up for work at BT's Royal House centre in Wood Street.

They held one of two tickets that scooped a share of Friday night's £91 million jackpot.

A company source said: "The lucky people do work in our Wood Street centre in Liverpool. They are employed by Hewlett Packard or by Manpower to do internal IT work, computer support.

"Some of them went to work not actually knowing anything about it. Someone from Camelot turned up and whisked them away."

The group will be unveiled at a press conference at Thornton Hall Hotel in Thornton Hough tomorrow at 11am.

The Globe asked if any of the syndicate is from Wirral, but Camelot remained tight-lipped and said all will be revealed tomorrow morning.

The remaining £45m jackpot ticket is now believed to have been won by a married couple from Newport, South Wales.

A spokesman for Camelot said: "Camelot can neither confirm or deny rumours of any winners."
