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

Noel's Christmas Presents is a British television show hosted by Noel Edmonds that was originally broadcast on Christmas Day on BBC1 in 1989. It was a reformatted live television event which Noel Edmonds had previously presented on BBC1 between 1984-1985, known as The Live Live Christmas Breakfast Show, and "Christmas Morning with Noel" between 1986-1988. Noel's Christmas Presents ran on BBC1 from 1989 to 1999 (except 1992) and then on Sky 1 from 23 December 2007 to 23 December 2012, where special Christmas presents were delivered to well-deserving members of the public. Edmonds did not host the final edition in 2012, which was renamed All-Star Christmas Presents and presented by Sally Lindsay. The 1991 edition was repeated on 6 March 1993, due to a reported bomb scare at BBC Television Centre, forcing that night's live edition of Noel's House Party off air. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
