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.

What happens
Football Focus was a BBC television magazine programme broadcast from 31 August 1974 until 1988, and from 1992 until 24 May 2026, live on BBC One on Saturday lunchtimes during the football season. The programme, alongside Final Score, was a segment of the flagship sports show Grandstand, which for decades dominated the BBC One Saturday afternoon TV schedules. Football Focus became a programme in its own right in 2001. It was a weekly magazine, with reports from across the country at all levels of English and Scottish football. It previewed the weekend's fixtures and provided updates from games which had already kicked off. Since the BBC had the rights to Premier League highlights, Football Focus also showed the key moments from midweek matches. The presenter was normally joined by two football pundits, and Match of the Day commentators often checked in with game previews from the stadiums. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
