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 person reads a story aloud on camera. The show ran on BBC in the late 1940s and early 1950s. It was usually the last program before a newsreel.

What happens
Saturday-Night Story is a British television programme which aired on the BBC from 1948 to 1953. In the series, a person would read a story. These people included Algernon Blackwood and John Slater. During 1948, the series was typically the last programme on the schedule for the day apart from a newsreel. It aired in a 15-minute time-slot. None of the episodes still exists, as the BBC very rarely telerecorded series at the time. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
