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
Doctors and Nurses is a British television sitcom written by Nigel Smith and Dr. Phil Hammond, focusing on the fraught relationship between two orthopaedic surgeons, set in a hospital on the Isle of Wight. It starred Adrian Edmondson, Mina Anwar and David Mitchell, and aired six episodes on BBC One from 13 January to 17 February 2004. The series was neither a critical nor a commercial success, and did not return for a second series. Edmondson did go on to play a similar doctor role in the non-comic hospital drama Holby City. Phil Hammond appeared as a neurosurgeon in episode three. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
