As surreal as it comes...

Paul Daniels, the magician, was taken to hospital with head injuries after being hit in the face by a pizza thrown by the puppet Sooty.

The 73-year-old was filming a scene for ITV's The Sooty Show when he was struck by the flying pizza, leaving him dazed.

Daniels suffered a black eye and was taken to hospital for treatment, The Sun reported.

The newspaper claimed that the incident happened after Daniels complained that in a first take of the scene, the pizza had not been thrown hard enough.

But as the puppet - operated by co-star Richard Cadell - hurled the Italian dish a second time, Daniels was injured.

Chris Davis, Daniels's agent, told the newspaper: "It damaged his eye. We had to go to hospital and cancelled a gig, but he's made a full recovery."

Naughty Sooty!

He is saying on Twitter that he isn't in hospital and is in fact in great health ready to do his Edinburgh shows (I have a ticket, yay!).

I bet he did not like that.

Sorry!

All these years I thought Sweep was the violent one...

Sue? I would.

I love news headlines where there's an awful lot going on in them.

His publicity department have done a great job of holding this "news" back until the start of the Edin Fringe...

Possibly the best comment;

"I'm sure Mathew Corbett had a hand in it."

*leaves*

I think it was self defence.

Nobody's heard what Sooty has to say???

If he hadn't stopped performing with Sooty years ago, maybe.

As a work colleague said, "When Sooty hits your eye with a big pizza pie, that's amore."
