World Record Online Bingo Win

Jo, a Special Needs School driver, had been playing Gala Bingo Online for only FIVE days when she scooped £162.701.97.

She said: 'I'm going to pay off the mortgage, and the car, and go out to Australia to see the long-lost friends who introduced me to my husband.

'I have three grown up children and ten grandchildren and we are going to have a great party.'

Jo, 52, from Luton, Beds, received her cheque on April 12 from top celebrity and model Nancy Sorrell – wife of comic Vic Reeves.

Jo is also a Meals on Wheels volunteer. She has been married for 35 years.

She added: 'I was at my daughter Melanie's house when I realised I'd won a big prize. 'We just went mad and danced around. When I told my husband Mervyn he thought I'd picked up £1,600. You should have heard him when I explained that I had won over £160,000!

'I'm going to carry on with my driving job. The Special Needs kids rely on people like me to get them to school.'

The previous highest recorded win was £130,000.

Gala Coral E. Commerce Managing Director Dominic Harrison said: 'We are delighted to have a big winner, and with the response to our new-look Gala Bingo website. It has real buzz, and mirrors exactly the exciting atmosphere to be found in our clubs.'
