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

Plus One is a British sitcom written and created by Tim Allsop and Stewart Williams, originally broadcast in 2007 as part of Channel 4's Comedy Showcase, before a full five episode series was commissioned and began transmitting on 9 January 2009. The program was produced by production company Kudos and directed by Sarah O'Gorman. It centres itself around a "record producer" (of music compilation albums) Rob Black (Daniel Mays), whose girlfriend (Miranda Raison) has dumped him to marry "Duncan from Blue". Rob's life is turned upside-down when he is invited to the wedding and feels that he must have a 'plus one' who will "blow everyone away." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
