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

Pawn Stars UK is a British reality television series which debuted on 26 August 2013 on the British version of the History channel and ran until 10 November 2014. The series was filmed in Sealand, Flintshire in Wales, and chronicled the day-to-day activities of pawn shop Regal Pawn, collaboratively run by Mark Andrew Manning, Mark Lever Holland, Marco Peter Holland, Simon Penworth, and Vicki Manning. A spin-off of the prominent American reality television series Pawn Stars (2009–present), the show's format was similar to the latter show, as it featured an array of collectible, antique and unusual items that people sell or pawn. In 2015, the Regal Pawn store where the show was set went bankrupt. It permanently closed its doors and a request was made to "strike off" the company at Companies House. The last time the premises were mentioned online, it was available for purchase through local estate agents. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
