Colin Weir, 64, said the new wealth was overwhelming, but "it feels like a good thing, something we should not be afraid of but for us to enjoy with the children."
He is a former TV cameraman and his wife is a psychiatric nurse. Both are currently out of work due to health problems.
Their win places the couple from Largs in Scotland 430th on the Sunday Times Rich List of wealthy Britons, not far below David and Victoria Beckham.
