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

SAS Australia, originally called SAS Australia: Who Dares Wins, is a reality quasi-military training television programme based on the original British SAS: Who Dares Wins that was broadcast on Seven Network between 19 October 2020 and 1 November 2023. Upon release of the first season, the show's name was changed to simply SAS Australia. The series featured four ex-Special Forces soldiers acting as the directing staff (DS), with Ant Middleton as the chief instructor. In June 2024 it was announced, that the production of the show was halted or "cancelled" for the year by Seven Network. The series was not mentioned at Seven’s 2025 upfronts and the future of the series is unknown. In October 2025, a celebrity version was renewed with a Australia vs United Kingdom format which aired in 2026. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
