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 People's Quiz (originally known as The National Lottery People's Quiz) is a BBC National Lottery game show broadcast on BBC One from 24 March to 23 June 2007, hosted by Jamie Theakston and featuring William G. Stewart, Myleene Klass and Kate Garraway as the 'Quiz Panel', who asked the questions to the contestants. The show originally featured National Lottery branding, with the National Lottery draws taking place during the programme. Following poor ratings and negative reaction from critics, the National Lottery cut its association with the show, and from episode six onwards, the show was retitled as simply The People's Quiz with the National Lottery draws moved to a separate live broadcast for the remainder of the series.
