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

The Keith Barret Show is a spoof BBC chat show hosted by Keith Barret (Rob Brydon) who interviews celebrity couples in the hope of finding the secret to a successful marriage. It was devised by Paul Duddridge and co-written with Rob Brydon. In each programme, there are a selection of clips from venues such as speed dating or interviews with relationship experts. Rob Brydon's character Keith first appeared on TV in the comedy series Marion and Geoff where, for most of the first series, he was oblivious to the affair between the title characters.
