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.

What happens

Doctor in Trouble is a 1970 British comedy film, the seventh and last film in the Doctor series.

The cast was rounded out by a number of British comedy actors including James Robertson Justice, Harry Secombe and Angela Scoular. The film was based on the 1961 novel Doctor on Toast by Richard Gordon, and is unrelated to the 1964 novel bearing the same title written by Clare Cavendish. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
