A BINGO lover has picked up her biggest ever win after scooping £3,000.

Judith Robinson, from Brandon, near Durham, won the prize after becoming the three millionth person to visit a club run by Majestic Bingo.

The 46-year-old plays regularly at the Apollo club in Sherburn Road, Durham.

She said: "I started playing with my mam years ago. It’s my favourite hobby.

"When I realised what was happening I became all shaky and felt like passing out. Another customer had to come over and hold me up!

“I’ve never won this much before. To anyone thinking of playing bingo I’d say give it a try you’ve got to be in it to win it. You never know your luck even if you don’t think it will happen to you."

Ms Robinson will be having a celebratory party on Sunday and is planning to spend her windfall on her new house.

The club’s Assistant Deputy Manager Andrew Pedelty who was on duty that night said “Well done to Judith, and we are delighted our club has found the 3 millionth visitor. Our club is has enjoyed its fair share of luck this year with big wins on the National Live and the company’s Majestic Bonus Game. We’re looking forward to hosting the party next Sunday.”
