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
Michael Wood presents this eight-part documentary series that explores British history from the perspective of everyday people instead of kings and queens. It focuses on the lives, work and experiences of common folk throughout the centuries in the United Kingdom.
