Derry man John Lynch said he is ‘over the moon’ after receiving a surprise video message from Winning Streak presenter Sinead Kennedy inviting him to the studio to meet herself and Marty Whelan.
The Irish Lottery’s social media team had spotted last week’s Derry Journal story about how a kind-hearted stranger, who was also a cross-border key worker, had purchased and delivered a Lottery ticket for John, who has autism, after he was unable to continue his weekly routine of crossing the border to buy one due to COVID-19 travel restrictions.
After seeing the story via Twitter, the Irish National Lottery team got in touch with presenter Sinead and she recorded a video for John inviting him to the studio in Dublin during the filming of the popular TV show once it gets up and running again.
