Revealed: 'Britain's luckiest place' where you are most likely to win Postcode Lottery

The place where Britons are most likely to win the Postcode Lottery has been revealed.

The odds of winning a National Lottery jackpot stand at one in 45 million, and the odds of taking home anything at all one in 9.3.

Postcode Lottery players, however, enjoy odds of one in four, with smaller top prizes.

Larger prizes, such as the Postcode Millions, Millionaire Street, or the £250,000 prize, see odds of around one in 250,000 - still more favourable than the National Lottery.

It can now be revealed exactly which postcodes are the luckiest.

The Birmingham "B" postcode has scored the most wins - picking up 1,595 since January 2011.

Next was Sheffield's "S" postcode with 1,514 victories.

Manchester's "M" was in third place with 1,333 and Newcastle upon Tyne's "NE" secured fourth at 1,217.

Nottingham's "NG" postcode places it in the top five in with 1,177 wins, followed by Glasgow's "G" with 1,135.

The remaining top 10 are filled out with Cardiff's "C" (1,028), Peterborough's "PE" (987), Portsmouth's "PO" (962), and Bristol's "BS" (957).

These are some of Britain's most populated cities and areas, so it follows it is largely represented in the data when evaluating luck by most number of wins.

But London is notably unrepresented in the lucky list - despite its near-10-million population.
