I really can do these quizzes in my sleep!

Yesterday evening I was lying on the sofa with the TV on the Challenge channel, which mainly shows a succession of quiz shows. I had been watching an episode of The Chase, but must have dosed off. I was next aware of hearing a quizmaster posing questions to two pairs of contestants. I was apparently there in the same room and thought I was taking part in the quiz. The idea was that if you knew the answer you pressed your buzzer - the problem was that I didn't have a buzzer! I knew most of the answers, but the only way to attract the quizmaster's attention was to raise my hand, which is what I did. However, he ignored me every time. Most frustrating! As I became more conscious I realized that I was watching a very old edition of Bullseye - and was not in the studio taking part! However, the questions I had been hearing were real enough, and I did know most of the answers. If you ever thought "I could answer these in my sleep" - you might well be right!
