The Winning Moment he Never Thought Would Arrive
A former bus driver, Peter Lavery, has revealed how his celebrations after winning £10.2 million in the lottery almost killed him. Peter, who was earning £200 a week at the time, will be featured in a new BBC documentary about his life as a lottery millionaire.
From Party Animal to Teetotal Entrepreneur
Peter's friends and doctor feared for his life as he indulged in excessive eating, drinking, and partying after his win. But eventually, doctors' orders forced him to stop drinking or risk his life. Undeterred, Peter turned his attention to business ventures, including opening an operational whiskey distillery in Belfast – the first in nearly 90 years.
Overcoming Challenges and Giving Back
Peter's journey to success was not without its challenges. The documentary will detail the obstacles he faced in bringing back whiskey distilling to Belfast and restoring a sightseeing vessel for tours of Belfast's shipyards and docks. Despite his millions, Peter has no intention of slowing down and continues to work.
A Life Transformed
From a bus driver earning £200 a week to a lottery millionaire and entrepreneur, Peter's life has been completely transformed. Tune in to the BBC documentary to learn more about Peter's inspiring journey.
