BBC daytime television presenter Kristian Digby has been found dead at his home in east London, police have said.

The 32-year-old, who hosted property shows such as To Buy or Not To Buy and Double Agents, was pronounced dead at the scene after ambulance crews arrived at his flat in Newham, on Monday morning.

The circumstances of Mr Digby's death are being described as "unexplained" by police at this point.

"Police were called to reports of a body of a man in his 30s found at an address in E15," said a spokesman for the Metropolitan police.

"Ambulance services attended and life was pronounced extinct."

Mr Digby's next of kin were informed after the discovery of his body on Monday before police confirmed his death.

A BBC commented: "Kristian was a much-loved and talented presenter for BBC Daytime.

"He brought a real sense of energy and warmth to all the shows he presented for us and will be sorely missed.

"Our thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time."

Mr Digby's agent and friend Jo Wander told the BBC: "I am devastated by the loss.

"He was a lovely guy and a very talented presenter and director.

"I will miss him hugely and my thoughts at this time are with his family and his many friends. He will be sorely missed."
