ALADDIN was able to use a magic carpet to get where he wanted to go, but pupils from a Glasgow school went on a special bus ride to see his panto.

The 50 youngsters from St Saviour's Primary, Govan, were joined on board the First Bus by two stars from Aladdin at the King's Theatre.

Karen Dunbar, who plays Slave Of The Ring, and Gordon Cooper, who is Widow Twankey, entertained the children on their way to the show, including Machenzie Graham and Neve Campbell, above. They helped launch a new offer allowing First Bus ticket holders to get £5 off selected performances of Aladdin.

The trip was supported by children's charity Cash For Kids.

Aladdin is on until January 12. Tickets are £9-£29.50. For more information or to book call 0844 8717648.
