Fashion designer Alexander McQueen, who committed suicide last week, died from asphyxiation according to his post-mortem.

Westminster Coroners Court heard that the designer took his life by hanging himself in a wardrobe at his London home. The hearing lasted five minutes.

His body was found last Thursday next to a note, on the eve of his mother’s funeral.

Detective Inspector Paul Armstrong told the inquest there were no suspicious circumstances.

Coldplay and Duffy are the favourites to win Brit Awards at tonight's star-studded ceremony.

An onlineĀ poll for HMV shows that the public want Welsh songstress to win all the awards for which she's been nominated.

Coldplay and Duffy are up for four awards each, with Scouting For Girls and Elbow receiving three nominations apiece.

The annual music awards ceremony will be hosted by comedians Matthew Horne and James Corden. The funnymen will be assisted by Australian singer Kylie Minogue.
