Starstreet (TV series)

STARStreet* is a British children's television series, starring the pop group allSTARS*. The 'STARS' in allSTARS* and STARStreet* represents the first letter of each member's name – Sandi, Thaila, Ashley, Rebecca and Sam.[2] The series saw the band living together in a fictional crazy colourful house, where anything out of the ordinary could happen. It was produced for two series by Carlton Television, in association with Byrne Blood Productions.[3] The first series first aired as part of the ITV children's Saturday morning show, SMTV Live in 2001. Due to its success, the first series was later repeated on CITV. The second series aired on CITV in 2002.[4] Production of STARStreet* was cancelled in 2002 due to the allSTARS* splitting up.
