The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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

Take the High Road (renamed High Road from 1994 to 2003) is a Scottish soap opera produced by Scottish Television, which started in February 1980 as an ITV daytime programme, and was broadcast until 2003. It was set in the fictional village of Glendarroch, Scotland, with exteriors filmed in the village of Luss on the banks of Loch Lomond. The series was dropped by most ITV stations in the 1990s, while Scottish, Grampian, Border and Ulster stations continued to screen it until its last episode. From April 2020, the entire series was made available to stream to UK viewers on the STV Player app. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
