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
Paignton Zoo is a zoo in Paignton, Devon, England, operated by Dutch leisure company Libéma since January 2026. The zoo houses a collection of approximately 1,876 animals representing nearly 189 species, and cultivates about 1,600 different species of plant across its 80-acre site. Originally established as a private collection by Herbert Whitley in the grounds of his home Primley House, the zoo opened to the public in 1923 as Primley Zoological Gardens. Following Whitley's death in 1955, the zoo was placed into a charitable trust, which later became the Wild Planet Trust. Paignton Zoo is a member of the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums, the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria – holding the vice-chair position until 2025 – and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums.
