Roger Moore collapses on stage
Roger Moore has collapsed on stage during a play in New York.
The James Bond star, 75, was playing a cameo role in the Morecambe and Wise tribute The Play What I Wrote, which is directed by fellow Brit Kenneth Branagh.
He managed to struggle on through the last ten minutes of the show wearing a lederhosen outfit.
But he was later taken to a Manhattan hospital surrounded by paramedics with an oxygen mask over his mouth.
He was admitted to the Emergency Room where doctors treated him for respiratory problems.
A spokeswoman told The Sun: "Our doctors are looking at him now and his condition is stable."
