A MYSTERY woman has won a big cash prize at a Carlisle bingo club.

A lucky regular at the Opera Bingo Carlisle branch won £50,000 on a 'national' game late last week.

The lady, who was said to be a regular at the club before Covid, only just returned to the branch around three weeks ago after a two-year pandemic-enforced break.

Neil Graham, manager at the Carlisle Opera branch said: "Obviously it's great news to see someone from the club win big money.

"The national game is a special game that's played once an evening... it's great to see someone win it, everybody was really happy, everybody was clapping and congratulating our winner.

"It gives everybody a bit of a buzz and a lift in the club. Obviously we come to work every day but we love to see our regular customers win... we really get a buzz out of it."
