National Lottery machine 'Guinevere' 1994
One of three random-number-selecting machines used in the UK's National Lottery live draws held since November 1994. Each week, as host Noel Edmonds whipped the crowds at BBC Television Centre into a frenzy of anticipation, all eyes focused on its dropping balls.
One at a time, the numbers flashed up on millions of television screens across the country. Somebody was about to become a millionaire. Yet for all its modern glitz, the machine was performing an ancient and venerated task -- the selection of a randon number. We have had technology to do that for thousands of years.
