Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Avenue of Stars was a version of the Hollywood Walk of Fame in London, England. It opened in 2005 with one hundred names, and was a temporary installation to accompany a TV show to celebrate ITV's 50th birthday. The Avenue of Stars was a walkway through Covent Garden passing St Paul's Church, commonly known as the "Actors' Church". It honoured individuals or groups from the entertainment industry with notable achievements. As on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the individual or group was represented by a five-pointed star containing the name set into the walkway. To qualify for a star, the individual or group had to have been from the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, or a Commonwealth nation.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Die Avenue of Stars, eine Straße in London, auf der sich nach dem Vorbild des Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles eine Reihe von fünfzackigen Sternen mit den Namen berühmter Musiker und Filmstars befanden, wurde im August 2005 eröffnet. Im Londoner Touristenviertel Covent Garden wurden zunächst 100 Sterne für legendäre britische Filmemacher wie Alfred Hitchcock, Charles Chaplin, Peter Sellers, Laurence Olivier und Alec Guinness in den Asphalt gegossen. Jährlich sollten weitere hinzukommen. Allerdings gab es im August 2006 Berichte, dass alle Stern-Platten bereits wieder entfernt wurden.
