Morrissey's gig at the Oasis Leisure Centre in Swindon tonight has been halted after the former Smiths frontman collapsed on stage.

The Mancunian star opened the set with his classic song 'This Charming Man' and fell to the floor before he could begin his second. He was stretchered off the stage by medical staff.

It is yet to be announced if the concert has been cancelled or if he will return to the stage.
