In London's tourist district Covent Garden , 100 stars were initially poured into the asphalt for legendary British filmmakers such as Alfred Hitchcock , Charles Chaplin , Peter Sellers , Laurence Olivier and Alec Guinness . More should be added every year. However, in August 2006 there were reports that all Stern plates had already been removed.
When selecting the honorees, they thought within the boundaries of the British Empire : to qualify for a star one must be "born in Great Britain , Ireland or a member state of the Commonwealth ".
