Sir Paul McCartney and Heather Mills Getting Ready to Tie the Knot
JACK CAFFERTY, CNN ANCHOR: Less than two hours and counting until the big wedding. Sir Paul McCartney, his fiancee Heather Mills are getting ready to tie the knot at an Irish castle. The flowers are in, the vegetarian feast is prepared, and now they're just waiting for the guests to arrive. And when the guests do arrive, they will pass by our man Richard Quest, who is on the lookout outside Castle Leslie in Glaslough, Ireland. Good morning, sir. Nobody so far.</s>RICHARD QUEST, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Good morning, Jack.</s>CAFFERTY: All alone.</s>QUEST: What we've seen, I'm not quite all alone. What we've seen is quite a lot of Mercedes cars roaring in with darkened windows which we assume are the big celebrities. We also saw a bus arriving which had ladies in Indian national costume, and we assume that's all to do with the idea of the Indian vegetarian feast and maybe some dancers for later on in the afternoon. We believe and we know that the former model Twiggy has been seen at London's airport. And she's also here. We know that the musician and composer Tim Rice is also here. And we're now just waiting to see if we get a glimpse of people like Elton John, Eric Clapton and, of course, Ringo Starr, who are pretty much confirmed. But you know, in Glaslough itself, a certain eerie quiet has now settled over the town for one very simple reason: nothing to do with Paul McCartney but everything to do with this. It is actually, of course, Ireland's big moment in the World Cup in soccer. We're in half time at the moment and Ireland 1-0 against Saudi Arabia. They need to win, two goals to ensure they'll go through to the next round. What we can say as the afternoon wears on, if they win, the cheer will certainly be huge and certainly the streets will be full -- Jack.</s>CAFFERTY: When is this wedding actually taking place, the vows, when do they actually say the words?</s>QUEST: Well, we believe it is going to be at 3:30, but if it is 4:00, don't call me a liar. It may be 4:15. Some time between the half hour of 3 and 4 is when the ceremony will take place. After that, the festivities begin at the marquis that have been built along the lakeside. Then there will be the concert. They be entertained not only by McCartney's touring band from his world tour but also people like Eric Clapton and probably, no doubt, Macca himself will sing. And then finally, the fireworks display. Jack, we believe when McCartney and Heather Mills will be shunted off on a boat into the middle of the lake.</s>CAFFERTY: Richard Quest over there in Glasslough in Ireland.
