• Nick Fisher, 63, disappeared from his home in Dorset on November 15, last year
• It sparked a frantic search for him and appeals from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall
• He was found 48 hours later in a room at the Wessex Royale Hotel in Dorchester
• An inquest heard today that Mr Fisher had died after taking a cocktail of drugs

The body of River Cottage star Nick Fisher was found in a hotel room after he took a fatal cocktail of drugs, an inquest has heard.

The 63-year-old was found by police at the Wessex Royale Hotel in Dorchester on November 17, last year, days after his friend Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall pleaded for the publics help to find him.

Mr Fisher, who was an award-winning TV writer involved in Casualty, Holby City, EastEnders and New Tricks had disappeared from his home in Hooke, Dorset, 48 hours before.

An inquest into his death was opened today and heard that a post-mortem had determined he had taken a cocktail of drugs.

[...]

The hearing at Bournemouth Town Hall was told that Mr Fisher had last been seen in a silver Nissan Navara truck accompanied by his brown and white Springer Spaniel dog on November 15.

He left his home in the village of Hooke near Bridport in his silver Nissan Navara YE71 DFA pick up on Tuesday afternoon, with his brown and white spaniel. The car was seen just half an hour later on a police camera near Dorchester.

'It seems Nick might have bought a cup of tea in a hotel near there, but he didn't stay there and he hasn't been seen since. It's so unlike Nick to do this and of course we are very worried for his safety.

'We are desperate to find him and if you have seen anything at all that could help us please call 101 and quote the case number 15:644. I'm also posting the appeal from the local news website with a picture of Nick.'

Mr Fisher was later found in a room at the Wessex Royal Hotel and was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics.

Dorset coroner Brendan Allen opened and adjourned the inquest for a full hearing on July 5.
