The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

It was produced by Michael Barry who presented the same play again the following year with many different cast members. It was an early television appearance by Kenneth More who reprised the role several times on stage. The adaptation aired every Christmas for four years' running. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
