Fireworks help Harlequins light the way

Danny Care has promised the action will live up to the hype after 75,000 are lured to watch Harlequins face Wasps - he talks to Eddie Butler in The Observer.

"Whatever marketing models the chief exec [Mark Evans] may be building, there is the plain old rugby fact that today just happens to be a plum fixture between two old rivals. It has captured the public's imagination because it has fired the players' too.

"It's the biggest club game I've been involved in," Danny Care, the Harlequins scrum-half, says. "It's going to be a fantastic experience, a special occasion."

It is the club's second Twickenham visit this season, the first being against Wasps, part of the double-header on the opening Saturday in September. Wasps-Harlequins and Saracens-London Irish pulled in a total of 65,000 between them."
