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
A group of contestants go on a trip and try to win a cash prize by not spending money from the prize fund on temptations. The host watches over them as they face choices to stay disciplined or spend.

What happens
Tempting Fortune is a British reality competition television series where a group of people try to win the biggest cash prize they can by avoiding temptations to spend money from the prize fund. The show was originally hosted by Paddy McGuinness with Rob Beckett taking over as host from the third series. The first series was filmed in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa during 2022, and premiered on Channel 4 on 26 March 2023. It was commissioned, as a co-production, in partnership with streaming platform Roku and was released by its programming brand Roku Originals. The show was renewed by Channel 4 in April 2024 but Roku was no longer a partner. The second series, set in Langkawi, Malaysia, began airing on 16 March 2025. A third series was announced in 2025, with McGuinness stepping down as host due to other commitments. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
