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
A young woman who is clever and well-meaning but also meddlesome tries to arrange the love lives of her friends and neighbors in a small English village. She often misunderstands situations and causes more confusion than she solves.

What happens
Emma is a four-part BBC television drama serial adaptation of Jane Austen's 1815 novel Emma. The episodes were written by Sandy Welch, writer of previous BBC costume dramas Jane Eyre and North & South, and directed by Jim O'Hanlon. The serial stars Romola Garai as the titular heroine Emma Woodhouse, Jonny Lee Miller as her loyal lifelong friend Mr Knightley, and Michael Gambon as Emma's father, Mr Woodhouse. The serial originally ran weekly on Sunday nights on BBC One from 4 to 25 October 2009. Critical reception to the series was generally positive, especially the first episode, with many of the main actors being praised. Later episodes attracted fewer viewers, and some critics felt that the initial tone was not maintained; alternatively, the lower figures may have been due to a scheduling conflict with the very popular X Factor on ITV1.
