Ah!! So is Solar Penguin writting questions for the BBC 2 quiz 'Only
Connect'??
 If so ...... Well done, Solar Penguin.

 ’Fraid not.  I can’t even answer most of those questions,
never mind writing them!
 (OTOH watching quiz shows I can’t answer probably does mean
I’ve got too much time on my hands!)
 

 What about the wheel?

 What about which wheel? Do wheels watch TV shows when
they have time on their hands? Do they even have hands? Are
you just posting at random to increase your precious post count?

"The Wheel" is a UK BBC quiz show hosted by comedian Michael McIntyre. There's an American version as well on NBC (also hosted by Michael McIntyre), plus a few other non-English versions. It's a rather ridiculous and awful show where celebrities sit on seats around a big wheel that spins (making them and the viewers dizzy) trying to help contestants answer questions.

At least one celebrity reportedly had to be replaced before filming an episode because spinning around on the wheel during the practice made them extremely ill.
