Peter Gallagher and Sandra Bullock star in While You Were Sleeping (Prime, Friday, 8.30pm), a pleasant romantic comedy in which we are asked to believe that Ms Bullock is your average tollbooth operator. 2.

Of course no politician would have taken advantage of her services. These days Bettie would be right at home at Dr Sketchy’s in the Bay. 3.
