Written with pace, humour and unflinching honesty, "Doing the Doors" is a riveting insight into the life of a modern-day doorman: the gangs, the drugs, the girls, and the clubs.

The product of a broken home, Robin began his door career cleaning up bikers' pubs in Norwich before being exposed by The Times for a steroid-dealing ring. Moving to London, he worked with Rhino from TV's Gladiators before training to be a bodyguard and going to Thailand to work on a Michael Jackson tour.

In Manchester, on the doors, he encountered some of the most violent gangs in the country, experiences he put to good use working in trouble-spots including Bosnia (where his friend was shot dead next to him), Croatia, Israel, Nigeria and Russia.

Doing The Doors is an inside account of how the door trade works in the UK and a no-holds-barred insight into a twilight world.
