Q: 

Mod Rewrite with out /old/something/else.php to /new/ and not /new/something/else.php

RewriteRule ^old/ /new/ [R=301,L]

I'm having a trouble getting /old/something/else.php to rewrite as just /new/ - Currently it goes to /new/something/else.php

I've tried various things I've picked up but can't seem tot find an answer to a seemingly simple problem. Any help much appreciated.
