Panto star Barrowman hurt falling off horse onstage

The curse of Jack and the Beanstalk in Glasgow has struck a second celebrity in nine years.

TV star John Barrowman was rushed to hospital after being injured in the panto favourite, following on from a similar misfortune that befell one half of the Krankies.

Barrowman was performing in a matinee yesterday afternoon when he was hurt while riding a real horse on stage at the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre (SECC).
