George Michael's childhood friend Andros Georgiou, speaking exclusively to Victoria Derbyshire, has linked the singer's death to drugs.

He says "hard drugs had been back in [the singer's] life," adding that crack cocaine was one of Michael's "favourite drugs".

The star died aged 53 on Christmas Day. A post-mortem examination was "inconclusive", police have said.

More tests are being carried out to determine what led to his death, which is not being treated as suspicious.
