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.
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.
