An inquest into the death of British TV presenter Kristian Digby has concluded the star suffocated during a botched solo sex game.
The 32 year old's body was found at his home in Stratford, east London in March.
A hearing at London's Walthamstow Crown Court on Monday revealed the star was found with a plastic garbage bag over his head, along with a canister of pleasure-boosting chemical ethyl chloride.
His passing was ruled as death by misadventure.
Digby began his career as a filmmaker, winning a junior BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) Award in 1997 for his movie Words of Deception.
He later moved into TV and fronted a string of popular shows in Britain, including BBC's To Buy Or Not To Buy, Open House and Holiday.
