Olympics: Paul McCartney, Daniel Craig, Queen Elizabeth in Opening Ceremony NBC, Olympics — posted by halboedeker on July, 25 2012 9:42 AM (ORLANDO SENTINEL) HAL BOEDEKER



The Opening Ceremony of the London Olympics will be a celebration of all things British.
The best of Britain includes the Beatles and James Bond. Paul McCartney has announced he will perform in Friday’s event, which starts at 7:30 p.m. on NBC.

James Bond (played by Daniel Craig) will be knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in a film that’s part of the big opening, The Telegraph reports. Oscar-winner Judi Dench, who plays M in the film series, also takes part in the film.

Is Queen Elizabeth ready for her close-up?



She had better be. She also will officially open the Games. She will have a little help from the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry, who will be there, too.

But that’s not all for Bond: Craig will reportedly drop into the Olympic ceremony from a helicopter.
