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

Industry is a financial thriller drama television series created by former investment bankers Mickey Down and Konrad Kay, and co-produced by HBO in the United States and BBC Two in the United Kingdom. The show follows the personal and professional lives of a group of young graduates who join Pierpoint & Co, a prestigious investment bank in London; later series expand the scope of the narrative to encompass the wider UK financial sector and its governing bodies. It features an ensemble cast led by Myha'la, Marisa Abela and Ken Leung. Additional leading roles are played by Harry Lawtey and David Jonsson in earlier series and Sagar Radia and Kit Harington in later installments. Industry premiered on 9 November 2020 on HBO in the United States, and on the next day on BBC Two in the United Kingdom. Three further eight-episode series have been released in 2022, 2024, and 2026. It has been renewed for a fifth and final series. Industry has been praised throughout its run for its writing, performances, direction, and its accurate portrayal of the banking sector, with the third and fourth series in particular receiving widespread acclaim.
