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

Wire in the Blood is a British crime drama television series, created and produced by Coastal Productions with Tyne Tees Television and broadcast on ITV from 14 November 2002 to 31 October 2008. The series is based on the Tony Hill and Carol Jordan series of novels by Scottish writer Val McDermid. It features university clinical psychologist, Dr. Anthony "Tony" Valentine Hill – played by Robson Green – who taps into his own dark side to get inside the heads of serial killers. Working with Carol Jordan and other detectives, Hill takes on tough and seemingly impenetrable cases in an attempt to track down the killers before they strike again. ITV cancelled the series in 2009, citing high production costs – which were estimated at up to £750,000 per episode – and the competition of numerous new series being broadcast on the network.
