Fallen stars

Remember the Avenue of the Stars, the "prestigious new London landmark" unveiled last autumn as part of an ITV love-in?

[Missing: Avenue of the Stars]

Let's play "spot the star". Here's a photograph of the avenue today, one year after it was launched. It should be easier, what with the promised annual additions.

That's the trouble with celebrity. One day you'll be celebrated forever, but once the commercial interest is gone you're discretely removed and popped out of sight.

(By the way, today marks another "last". It's the last time a day-trip to London will cost me £30 and six hours on a train. Roll on living nearer civilisation.)
