No it’s not a fix, speaking from my personal experience of getting the 6 balls

So why can't you buy a ticket at 19:59 when it's drawn at 20:00?

It will be to do with the surrounding regulations.
Ticket purchases will cease prior to the balls and machine being selected and set up to prevent insider influences positively affecting the result of the draw.
They need to be able to prevent claims that any winner has won by chance rather than fraudulent means.

So the complete opposite to what the OP is suggesting.
She’s asking why you can’t buy a ticket immediately prior to the draw. I’m proposing reasons why. I think anyway.
Obviously.

Sounds reasonable.
Could be historical logistics of it too. I imagine the system was a lot slower back in 1993 when the lotto started.

It certainly seems like it's fixed in many cases.
The rollovers alone seem too contrived in order to entice more people to come into it and also more people to put more money on in the hope of winning the larger jackpot.

As theyve increased the number of balls it reduces the chances of winning, so increases the number of rollovers.

Why would you need to "fix" something with such ridiculous odds to begin with?

Aye but I was talking about before they upped it, which is a fix in itself.
Simply to ensure the participants gain a small share of the spoils whilst the big hitters take the lions share.

Quite happy to put the lottery on to help support the CEO of Camelot salary package.
Have you any met someone who won the jackpot or is it like the Running Man?
