If you're passing...
The Walk of Stars doesn't quite have the lustre of Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, but it's something of note if you're on your way to the Black Sabbath Bridge or stopping for a drink along the canal.
On the official site for the walk, it tells you that there are decdications to Ozzy Osbourne, Jasper Carrott, Noddy Holder, Murray Walker, The Archers, Norman Painting, Tony Iommi, Aston Villa’s 1982 European Cup-winning team, Tony ‘Bomber’ Brown, Frank Skinner, Gil Merrick, Ray Graydon, Julie Walters, Gary Newbon, Lenny Henry, Beverley Knight, Joan Armatrading, Chris Tarrant, Birmingham Royal Ballet, David Bintley, Roy Wood, Bev Bevan, Matt Croucher GC, Laurie Mansfield, Sir Keith Porter, Nigel Mansell, Malkit Singh, Harry Moseley, Jaki Graham, Ellie Simmonds, David Harewood, Jeff Lynne, Trevor Francis, Ian Lavender, Dennis Amiss, Ann Haydon Jones, Steel Pulse, Toyah Willcox, Don Maclean, Geezer Butler, Jamelia, UB40, Black Sabbath, Bill Ward, Warwickshire County Cricket Club’s treble-winning team from 1994, Carl Palmer, John Lodge, and Steve Gibbons.
That's quite a list! However, the vast majority of stars were removed as part of reconstruction work on the road and haven't yet been replaced. I only spotted four - so if you love Electric Light Orchestra, the Birmingham Royal Ballet, or even the dancing of David Bintley - you might get a kick out of it but there's little else
