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
Last Rights is a British television political thriller drama, written by Clive Bradley and directed by Bill Anderson, which first aired on Channel 4. Despite the subject matter, all three episodes were broadcast back-to-back from 9 am on 24 March 2005, as part of a strand of programming aired towards the run-up to the 2005 UK General Election. The series stars Philip Glenister as John Speers, a spin-doctor and right-hand man to the newly elected prime minister, Richard Wheeler (Charles Dance), who tries to prevent the leak of potentially sensitive confidential information when his laptop is stolen by a young tearaway. The series also co-starred Ashley Walters, Iddo Goldberg, Stephen Graham and Colin McFarlane. Aside from a single rerun during the T4 strand of programming in 2006, the series has never been repeated since and has never been released on DVD. Due to the timeslot of broadcast, no viewing figures were recorded for any of the three episodes. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
