Stuart Cable drank himself to death after going on a vodka diet, his girlfriend, Rachel Jones, revealed.

Jones has launched a campaign for better warnings on strong alcohol and spoke of how she found the former Stereophonics' drummer on the kitchen last June.

Cable had switched from lager to vodka to get fit for a tour with his new band Killing For Company before going on a three-day drink binge to celebrate his 40th birthday.

Jones said: "Don't die like Stuart did. If you saw someone drinking poison or bleach you would stop them."

A post mortem revealed that the musician was five times over the drink-drive limit.
