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
In a small 1840s English town, a group of women navigate daily life, social rituals, and unexpected changes. The story follows their friendships, small dramas, and the arrival of new people who shake up the community.

What happens
Cranford is a British television series directed by Simon Curtis and Steve Hudson. The teleplay by Heidi Thomas was adapted from three books by Elizabeth Gaskell: the novels Cranford, published 1851-1853, and My Lady Ludlow (1858), and the novella Mr Harrison's Confessions (1851). "The Last Generation in England" was also used as a source. The series was transmitted in five parts in the UK by BBC One in November and December 2007. In the United States, it was broadcast in three episodes by PBS as part of its Masterpiece Theatre series in May 2008. Cranford returned with a two-part Christmas special Return to Cranford in 2009.
