How many numbers do you need to win?
If you have got two numbers or one number and two lucky stars or better then you are a winner. Players must match all five main numbers and two lucky star numbers to claim the jackpot. The Thunderball draw was also made tonight and the results will also be displayed below. The Thunderball draw takes place at 8pm and the Euromillions draw takes place at around 8.15pm.
In May 2022 Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, became the UK's biggest-ever Euromillions winners after netting £184m with a lucky dip ticket. Their record did not last long, though, after another UK winner came forward in July 2022 to claim a jackpot of £195m. However they have not gone public. Prior to Mr and Mrs Thwaite's win the previous record was held by an anonymous winner who scooped £170m in October 2019. On June 4, 2021, a ticketholder in the UK scooped the £111m jackpot in the Friday-night draw, matching all seven numbers to become the country's ninth-biggest lottery winner ever at that stage.
In June 2019 a single ticketholder in the UK won £123m in the Tuesday night Euromillions draw. It was the third-biggest Euromillions jackpot in the UK since the draw launched in 2004. It meant they instantly became as rich as Fifty Shades of Grey author EL James (£127m) and Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page (£125m). Euromillions is played in nine European countries.

Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, Sony Pictures settle songwriter's 'Dazed and Confused' lawsuit
Aug 1 (Reuters) - Songwriter Jake Holmes has settled a lawsuit that accused former Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, music publisher Warner Chappell (WMG.O), opens new tab and film studio Sony Pictures (6758.T), opens new tab of violating his rights in the song "Dazed and Confused," according to a Friday filing in California federal court. The parties told the court, opens new tab that they had resolved their dispute and were finalizing a written settlement. Details of the settlement agreement were not immediately available. Holmes' attorney Daniel Johnson declined to comment. Spokespeople for Warner Music and Sony Pictures did not immediately respond to requests for comment or more information about the settlement. Holmes, a singer-songwriter and prominent creator of advertising jingles, wrote "Dazed and Confused" in 1967. Page's band, the Yardbirds, reworked it later that year, and his next band, Led Zeppelin, featured it on their debut album in 1969. Holmes first sued Page for copyright infringement in 2010 over his versions of the song. That dispute was settled in 2011. Holmes filed a new lawsuit in May alleging that Page released several archival Yardbirds live versions of "Dazed and Confused" that only credit Page as the song's writer, breaking their settlement agreement and infringing Holmes' copyright. The complaint said that the Sony Pictures documentary "Becoming Led Zeppelin," released in February also unlawfully featured "Dazed and Confused" without compensating or crediting Holmes. Page, Sony Pictures and Warner Chappell did not respond to the allegations in court. The case is Holmes v. Page, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, No. 2:25-cv-03977.

Sissoko, Segal, Parisien & Peirani at EIF: the unlikely quartet where egos are 'out of the window'
If you're looking for genre-busting combos you'll be hard-pressed to find anything more eclectic than this quartet, writes Jim Gilchrist Sign up to our Arts and Culture newsletter Sign up Thank you for signing up!

Its patent diversity may suggest an ensemble put together by a well-meaning cultural affairs committee: take one Malian kora player, add an eclectically-minded cellist, a leading jazz saxophonist and a similarly venturesome accordionist. The result, however, far from emerging as an ungainly musical camel, is a uniquely collaborative quartet producing beguiling music that eloquently, gleefully defies categorisation. The quartet Sissoko, Segal, Parisien and Peirani bring their potent musical melting pot to the Edinburgh International Festival next month, as part of the festival's series of folk, jazz and world music recitals at The Hub. It's their first visit as a quartet, although kora player Ballaké Sissoko and cellist Vincent Segal performed at the festival in 2021. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Vincent Peirani (accordion), Ballaké Sissoko (kora), Émile Parisien (sax) and Vincent Segal (cello) Sissoko and Segal established their unlikely seeming partnership in the early Noughties. Sissoko, master of the glittering, 21-stringed kora or harp-lute, comes from a long line of Malian griots – hereditary tradition-bearers and praise musicians; while Segal is a French cellist steeped in everything from baroque to trip-hop. Their first album together, Chamber Music, became a surprise bestseller in Europe and North America. The other half of the quartet is also an established musical partnership. Soprano saxophonist Émile Parisien is a major figure in French jazz and beyond, steeped in jazz traditions while exploring way beyond them, while Vincent Peirani is a similarly barrier-breaking accordionist who long ago stepped out of the confines of the musette music normally associated with the accordion in France. Their frequent joint appearances can find the pair playing anything from a classic rag with American jazz statesman Wynton Marsalis to Led Zeppelin numbers. As a quartet, Sissoko, Segal, Parisien and Peirani released their first album in 2023, titling it Les Égarés, which can be translated as 'the lost ones', but here means 'the wanderers', as Parisien emphasises, speaking from his home outside Paris: 'It's 'lost' but in a poetic way. You know when you are walking in the city or in a forest, just walking without thinking where you are going – just floating.' The album's title track, written by Segal, is La Chanson des Égarés, typical of the group's rich tapestry of contrasting tones, cello sometimes percussive, sometimes sonorous over thrumming strings, the round-toned singing of Parisien's soprano sax contrasting with glittering fusillades of notes from the kora. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad In contrast, there's Esperanza, a perky, accordion-led café tune, while Peirani and Sissoko work up a dramatic pulse to power an acoustic re-imagining of Joe Zawinul's Orient Express as saxophone and melismatic cello sing out. And in one Peirani composition, Nomad's Sky, kora, plucked cello then accordion generate a brooding, torrid mood before soprano sax breaks out with a plangent, Middle-Eastern sounding solo. The two duos first got together pre-Covid, as Parisien explains: 'It was an idea from Vincent Segal when he was given carte blanche at a festival and he decided to invite Vincent Peirani and me to play maybe two songs with him. It was immediately a superb meeting and the director of Vincent and Ballaké's label, No Formats, asked us after the concert, 'Guys, don't you want to do something together?' So, right after Covid, we decided to make the album together.' One gets the impression that the group's vivid mix of tones and contrasts is bound by empathy: 'There is a lot of respect between us and the wish of everybody is to serve the music,' says Parisien. 'There are no egos, just a wish to make some poetic music together.' Asked how he would describe the music of Les Égarés to an EIF audience, Peirani initially finds it a hard question to answer, 'because there are so many different influences. In my mind, though, it's a real meeting between Ballaké and his musical background of the traditional Malian kora and our western European music. On paper it seems a strange combination: saxophone and accordion already seems strange, cello even more so, then with the addition of the kora definitely strange – you don't know what to expect.' Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Peirani also agrees with the tapestry comparison, and the importance of empathy: 'The combination of the four instruments permits us to go in many different ways, harmonically, rhythmically. And, okay, we are four musicians, we all have our egos, but with this combination it's more about being human beings. We're just servants of the music; the egos are out the window.' An accordion virtuoso who included covers of Marilyn Manson and the Nine Inch Nails on his album Jokers, and who habitually performs barefoot, Peirani emphasises the 'two duos' origins of the ensemble: 'It has been really good for all of us. In my case I'm used to playing with Émile, but now we've two people more, like a duo extended, and I think for Vincent and Ballaké it's the same.' The effect of the collaboration rubs off, Peirani finds, even when he and Parisien are back together as a duo: 'These past few weeks I played a lot as a duo with Émile an it was funny because we took the same repertoire we've been playing for many years but these last few weeks we've been playing it completely differently. After each show we look at each other and say, 'Mmm, this is the Les Égarés influence.'' Further stretching his musical connections at the EIF, the accordionist, along with Les Égarés colleague cellist Vincent Segal, will join the Aga Khan Master Musicians earlier the same evening, playing with renowned performers from Asia and the Middle East. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'I'm looking forward to it,' he says. 'We had two concerts in Paris last April and, to be honest, these people are really amazing. Again it's new musicians, new background, new history, then we are on stage and we have to share the music in performance and create something different and this is so exciting.'

European town takes aim at tourists with sassy poster and begs for 'decorum'
Before you leave the beach, put those clothes on (Picture: Getty Images) We all know there's a stereotype of a Brit abroad that's, erm, less than favourable. Wandering around shirtless (and sunburnt) in sliders with socks, if we're not drinking at a Ye Olde pub at 11am, we're hogging sunbeds by the pool. But now, one French town, that claims to have '200 years of elegance' is taking a stand. Les Sables d'Olonne, a seaside resort on France's west coast, is fining tourists for showing too much skin. The mayor asked for a 'little decorum' in their 'elegant' town (Picture: Getty Images) Writing in a Facebook post, Mayor Yannick Moreau, said he wanted to 'clearly' remind visitors that 'it's forbidden to walk around naked or in a swimsuit at Sables d'Olonne'. Sign up to The Getaway newsletter Fuel your wanderlust with our curated newsletter of travel deals, guides and inspiration. Sign up here. Mayor Yannick said that it's an 'indecent' habit that the town experiences during the summer, and begged for 'a little decorum, please!' The stern words were accompained by a poster, which featured a play on the March of Progress illustration, often used to depict the theory of evolution from ape to man. Do you recognise the guy in the pink shorts? (Picture: Les Sables-d'Olonne) In Les Sables d'Olonne's poster, the iconic image is in reverse, starting with a decidedly French looking fellow in a beret, and ending with a rather familiar-looking shirtless man, complete with ginger beard, socks and sliders, and cross-body bumbag. The poster confirms that tourists will be slapped with a €150 (£130) fine if they're caught flouting the rules, with a reminder to not 'end up in your underwear in our alleys.' This elegant town doesn't want tourists forgetting their clothes (Picture: Getty Images) The Mayor reminded visitors in his rather sassy Facebook post that Les Sables d'Olonne has 11km of coastline 'to show off your pecs and your best swimsuit'. If you do visit Les Sables d'Olonne — and can manage to keep your clothes on — there's fun to be had. La Grande Plage is perhaps the most popular beach, but there are eight in total, with some ideal for keen surfers looking to ride the waves. There's also a promenade to talk a stroll along, but perhaps the most unique part of the town is Penotte Island neighbourhood. The quaint Penotte Island neighbourhood (Picture: Getty Images) Over the years, the facades of houses and buildings have been covered with colourful moasic murals. It's the perfect place to while away a few hours, strolling the narrow streets and admiring the artwork. Further afield, there are lots of hiking and cycling routes, offering stunning views along the French Atlantic coast. European destinations cracking down on tourist behaviour Les Sables d'Olonne isn't the only place taking a stand. Across Spain, tough new rules have been unveiled for holidaymakers. For example, in Mallorca's Playa de Palma, S'Arenal and Magaluf, and in San Antonio, Ibiza, all-inclusive guests now have a six-drink limit. Under the rules, you can have three drinks at lunch, and a further three at dinner. And, on Magaluf's infamous strip, pub crawls have also been banned. Elsewhere in Palma, there's a crackdown on walking tours. New requirements will see tours limited to 20 people per group, which will likely make them more expensive. And in Gran Canaria, in the Canary Islands, a whole host of new banned beach items and behaviours were announced. These include things like smoking or vaping, reserving spots on sun decks, collecting shells using an umbrella for shade. Do you have a story to share?
