Head gasket has gone by the sound of it, check for bubbles in the plastic water tank

most likely cause is a split in the plastic end tanks of the radiator. It's a common fault. Check the end tanks after driving the car for signs of water, and replace the radiator if required.

If it isn't that, you may have a split water hose, or worst case scenario it could be a gasket.
