Wendy WilliamsA LOTTERY winner who settled in Spain has returned to Britain, penniless.
Lawrence Cavendish, a factory worker from Gateshead, bought a house and an Irish pub in Benidorm after he won £5million in 1997.

Cavendish is now back living in the UK, reportedly so poor he even had to borrow taxi fare to get to the airport home.
