As we reported recently, during filming for this year’s Red or Black? game show, one lucky winner scooped TV’s biggest ever prize which was the whopping and very nice thank you sum of £1.5milllion…

However, it’s been reported today that the winner, lucky Graham Fletcher, may have had a friend upstairs overseeing his efforts on the show – in which contestants have to simply guess whether a particular challenge will be won by red or black; the colours representing the opposing sides – given that his mum and dad are called Mary and Joseph.

And freakily enough, Graham is a carpenter, as was the famous son of another Mary and Joseph.

However, the Sun, who reported the bizarre coincidence, haven’t noted any miracles being attributed to Graham, but I reckon it might be a plan to hand him a few loaves and sardines and see what happens…

But an ITV source said of the record cash prize, “God was smiling on us and Graham.”

Of Graham’s massive win, a Red or Black? insider said, “His big idea if he won a £500,000 jackpot on Red or Black was to go back to Australia.

“But now he’s probably got enough to make a go of it in this country.”

When he won the amazing amount, Graham – who has apparently suffered a number of setbacks to his finances of late – burst into tears and ran into the arms of his wife, Lucy.

The edition featuring Graham’s whopping win will air in August.
