Whenever I tell this story, I say that I was in bed and my eyes popped open, but I sleep with my eyes open, so they just sort of widened slightly. Sorry. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Stop the bus. Woah, why have we done the rest of the show and not started with this bit? I sleep with my eyes open. - Really? Yeah. Not like, not like Gandalf. Not like. ‘Cause Gandalf sleeps with his eyes open. Do you know that? Of course he does! Of course he does! Leave him alone! He's 85. Is he doing it at this moment? But. Yeah. - No, no. We need to know more about this! I don't know what else there is to say. I sleep with my eyes open! Not, not like, mostly, it's not fully.

It's usually just like, Oh, so it's nothing weird then! Have you always slept with your eyes open? Yeah. Yeah, since I was a baby. - Because as a kid... I mean, I've got 2 small kids. If I went in the room and they were just sleeping like that looking at me... - Yeah - I'd be doing an exorcism. - My mum says I used to do it as a baby, and she was a bit freaked out by it, but she just sort of, you know, she was like...

sort of like, I have really dry eyes. What are we doing here? We should be making a Channel 5 documentary. Yeah. The woman who doesn't blink! Sorry. Do you have very lively dreams? Uhm, I don't remember my dreams, Ian, actually. - Too busy looking at a bedroom ceiling! - Yeah. “That needs painting!” Uhm, if someone did that... If you say, fell asleep on a train. Would you like? I wouldn’t, no, I wouldn't see anything. Like, my vision is... my vision is still impaired when I'm sleeping, but I... I actually have very little information for you about this condition. - It’s quite a... it's quite a short documentary. - Yeah. If you have been affected by any of the issues raised here tonight, please call Graham Norton. That is fascinating though... - Yeah, yeah.
