Poplar's Coroner's Court was told on Wednesday that police were flagged down outside the 40-year-old television presenter's home in Stoke Newington, north-east London, on Saturday, February 15.

Officers "found [her] lying on her back, she had apparently been found hanging”, coroner’s officer Sandra Polson said.

Police attempted resuscitation, which was then continued by paramedics, but she was pronounced dead at the scene.
