VIDEO: Ever wonder how Richard Keys lives? Well wonder no more with tour of his Doha home

He's landed on his feet

It must have taken every iota of restraint for him to avoid saying “this is where the magic happens.”

Apart from the odd tweet and blog post, we don’t hear an awful lot from Richard Keys on this side of the world anymore.

The former Sky Sports presenter is now plying his trade for beIN Sports in Qatar and they must be paying well because he’s got some pretty nice digs.

Keys was quick to point out that he doesn’t own the giant gaff but has kitted it out with a gargantuan flat screen TV, a model of the Titanic and a small British telephone box.

Keys and television soulmate Andy Gray were sacked by Sky Sports for making derogatory comments towards female official Sian Massey in 2011.

There’s no sign of Gray in the clip, rather disappointingly, but Keys doesn’t look to be doing too poorly for himself although there is a very real tinge of David Brent about the MTV Cribs-esque tour.
