It was more like raindance yesterday when "Riverdance" creators Moya Doherty and John McColgan received their honorary doctorates from the National University of Ireland in Maynooth.
The pair are currently busy putting the finishing touches to the opening ceremony of the Special Olympics in Dublin on June 21. John revealed that the forthcoming show would see the largest ever "Riverdance" line-up, involving 100 dancers.

The Special Olympics will be the biggest sporting event worldwide in 2003.
However groups representing the disabled have criticised the Irish Government's decision to ask Special Olympics athletes from SARS-infected countries not to travel to Ireland for the Games.
