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
Satellite City is a Welsh sitcom, originally a radio show on BBC Radio Wales in 1994 and later a TV version made by BBC Wales and first broadcast in 1996. A pilot, eighteen 30-minute episodes and a one-hour special were made in all. The pilot was significantly different from the remainder of the series, portraying Idris, one of the main characters, as senile and deluded into believing that clothes pegs were talking to him. In 1999, the series won a BAFTA Cymru Award for Best Light Entertainment. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
