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
Two bikers travel around the United Kingdom visiting different counties. They learn about each area's food and cooking traditions, and compete against a local chef in a taste-off.

What happens
The Hairy Bikers' Food Tour of Britain is a 2009 BBC television cookery programme which is presented by The Hairy Bikers: Dave Myers and Si King. The 30-part series, which aired weekdays at 17:15 on BBC Two in the United Kingdom began on 24 August 2009. In each show the Hairy Bikers visit a county of the United Kingdom, and learn about its food culture and heritage. One episode was postponed during its original run, due to the FIFA Women's World Cup Football Final. Each episode features a "taste-off" competition, pitting the Bikers against a renowned chef currently based in the county. Whilst showcasing the chef, the riff from Elbow song "Grounds for Divorce" is occasionally featured. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
