A couple with a combined age of 170 have become Britain's oldest lottery jackpot winners - after scooping over £18MILLION.

Lucky Dennis Banfield, 87, and wife Shirley, 83, won the huge prize along with daughters Tina, 54, and Karen, 51.

Dennis, who uses a walking stick, bought the winning ticket at his local newsagent and kept it as usual in a diary ready to check the day after the draw.

He checked them on Sunday and when Shirley read them out she said 'who'd have those numbers?' and her hubbie of 60 years replied: 'I do'.
