    Was there a winner today ?

    Yes, chap that won the £250,000 today, presenter said had entered this morning 10.30 by text, has dogs, was with wife and no idea how will spend life changing cash, celebrate with champagne and wine. 
      Chap said would have been a costly missed call, presenter agreed but at start presenter said no 5 rings to answer and chaps number selected at random from entries, so if chap had not picked up phone would next person be called or would they keep trying chap till he answered his phone. 
    You don't have to answer within 5 rings but need to answer before the call "rings-out" or (has been so in the past) another number is selected
