My company has a mixed fleet and the policy for aircraft without a designated crew rest is for one pilot to sleep whilst a cabin crew member is brought into the flight deck "to keep the PF aroused" thats a quote from the ops manual.
Any drugs clearly a total no go... but what you must have is a way of eliminating light and noise. I agree that £20 is a lot to pay for the sleepmaster but it is the best thing on the market for keeping the daylight out the CC / PF conversations slipstream noise etc.
