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

Bits and Bobs is a children's television programme which is produced and is broadcast by BBC. It was last repeated on CBeebies on 21 December 2012. The show is filmed at several notable Scottish attractions and locations. Bits and Bobs is also an English slang for a collection of small items too numerous or varied to name individually. It originated from carpenters' tool kits containing parts for a drill, with bits used for making holes while bobs are routing or screwdriving drill attachments. Recording for the first series took place in late 2001 and was initially scheduled to premiere in the summer of 2002. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
