SIX lucky people walked away from Blackpool Tower with pockets bulging ....full of £5 notes!

The lucky six were finalists at Rock FM's Dash for Cash Bash - the climax to a month in which Rock FM had given 97 people VIP tickets and a chance to win their share of £10,000.

The winners were John Briathwaite, who collected 290, Debbie Hardisty who grabbed £613.50, Steve Price who coined in £539, Joan Williams who picked up £390, Bernard Fisher who took £616 and Gary Hutchinson who claimed £505.

The remainder of the cash was distributed between the remaining 91 guests, who each received £80.

Top-ten star Suggs performed for the winners at the party which was broadcast live on Rock FM
