Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty collapsed last week following an apparent drugs binge, it's been reported.

Doherty is said to have taken a number of narcotics hours before he was due to perform a solo show at a venue in Graz, Austria.

According to the Sun newspaper, he was revived after his promoter, Bettina Aichbauer, alerted paramedics.

Doherty then apparently refused hospital so that he could perform at the NonStop cinema, where he also premiered his autobiographical movie.

The film, shot on his own camera, diverges some details about his former relationship with supermodel Kate Moss.

Doherty's spokesperson hadn't responded to the claims when this story went to press.
