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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

It ran for two series from 1962 to 1963. 12 episodes were made in all, each of half an hour long. It was filmed in black and white. All episodes were believed to have been wiped by the BBC, but in 2016 the British Film Institute announced it had recovered the second episode of the first series, William and the Leopard Hunter.
