When somebody does finally does blab to the press about Dicky's idiosyncratic passtime, will that make them a stool pigeon?

Dicky Dump gets an unflattering mention in Alan Partridge's wonderful new book, 'Nomad'

"I do have some insight into executive life in the Middle East after finding myself stuck on Richard Keys’s group email list following his departure from Sky Sports (thanks to an unguarded piece of golf-club banter) and his subsequent move to Al Jazeera in Doha. His weekly emails purported to be a way of keeping friends and family abreast of his new life in Qatar, but were actually thinly veiled bragathons in which he’d attach pictures of him in sunglasses, or making phone calls on a lilo, or eating steak with Andy Gray. Richard didn’t know what BCC was, leaving each recipient publicly exposed as a friend of his even if, like me, they’d only met him twice. Fortunately, I replied to all that it’d be fascinating to see how Richard got on with the Islamist state of Qatar. ‘One is a medieval relic that despises women, persecutes workers and is viewed with suspicion by the West . . . and the other is the Islamist state of Qatar!’ It seems I was removed from the list after that."
