Bernie Musgrave travelled to th show with her husband Cyril who will be thirty years married in September. They have six children - Malcolm, Jacqueline, Stephen, Michael and Paul.
As a busy housewife, Bernie does not have much time to herself but when she does she likes to read and look after her garden.
It was Cyril who purchased the scratch card and put her name on it.
They were watching the show and Cyril had just commented sadly 'that their luck had gone out the window again' when Derek read out Co. Tyrone! Bernie felt pure shock, followed by excitement when her name was selected.
She would like to take the opportunity to mention all of her family and friends who have been so kind to them all week.
