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.
How it feels
Teams of children take on physical and mental challenges in a jungle-themed obstacle course. They race against the clock to collect tokens and complete games for prizes.

What happens
Jungle Run is a British children's television game show produced by Granada Kids. The programme aired on CITV as part of the ITV network from 10 September 1999 to 29 November 2006. It is similar to shows such as Fort Boyard and The Crystal Maze. The show has had three presenters, referred to as the "Jungle Guide": Dominic Wood from 1999 to 2000, Chris Jarvis from 2001 to 2002 and Michael Underwood from 2003 to 2006. Similarly to The Crystal Maze, the set was constructed inside an adapted aircraft hangar. The Wood era of the show was filmed at the disused air base RAF Finningley near Doncaster; the Jarvis and Underwood series' were filmed at RAF Newton near Nottingham, sharing production space with the later original series run of Robot Wars.
