Lucky Bexley pensioner wins £10,000 in THIRD time winning online competition

A pensioner from Bexley has won £10,000 in an online competition - his third time winning a prize.

Graham Noakes, 67, bagged this prize courtesy of BOTB's Instant Win Competition, seven years after his first win.

Back in 2017, Graham won a Jaguar XE S worth £48,000, and added a £10,000 cash prize to this in 2020.

He received an email telling him of his victory, before presenter Christian Williams video called him to confirm his latest prize.

Graham said: "When I first saw I had won, I was obviously stunned yet again, although it has sunk in a bit quicker this time, having won it twice before.

"My wife had already gone to bed, so she didn’t know until the next morning.

"It took me a while to go to sleep that night as well."

The 67-year-old added: "I said to Christian how nice it was to see him again and told him not to leave it so long next time."

Dad-of-two Graham plans to use some of his prize money on a much-needed holiday, suggesting it would probably be spent quickly by eager family members.

He said: "I’m sure my wife, kids and grandkids will all have an idea of how to spend the money, and it will soon disappear.

"We’ll probably put it towards a holiday in the autumn to somewhere with a sunnier climate."

Presenter Christian Williams said: "This isn’t the first time Graham and I have spoken, but you wouldn't have known it by the look of surprise on his face.

"To win for a third time is an incredible achievement, and I’m sure he’s going to enjoy his latest prize as much as he did the first two."

The BOTB competition, established in 1999, gives away a new car and a lifestyle prize every week.

Over the years, it's handed over the keys to cars worth £67m.
