Shaun the Sheep statues exhibited at Covent Garden piazza

Seventy of the statues spent the summer in Bristol and 50 in London

London's Covent Garden piazza has been turned into a giant sheepfold to accommodate a flock of statues.

The 120 decorated Shaun the Sheep sculptures spent the summer scattered around London and Bristol for two charity art trails.

They have been brought together for the last time before being auctioned for charity on 8 October.

Each 5ft-tall (1.5m) sheep has been designed by a celebrity or artist, such as designer Zandra Rhodes.

They are based on the character from the Wallace and Gromit animation series.

Hundreds of thousands of people are believed to have taken part in the two art trails

All the statues are on display at Covent Garden until Sunday

Proceeds from the auction will support Wallace and Gromit's Children's Charity, as happened with the similar Gromit Unleashed trail in 2013, which raised more than £2.3m for Bristol Children's Hospital.

Members of the public have until Sunday to see the sculptures free of charge at Covent Garden.

Each statue will be auctioned on 8 October to raise money for charity

The sculptures have been decorated by artists and celebrities

Nicola Masters, director of Wallace and Gromit's Children's Foundation, said: "It's been a wonderful summer for Shaun and our Covent Garden exhibition represents the last chance for the public to see all 120 sculptures from our London and Bristol trails before they go to auction in October.

"We're delighted to have had the support of so many designers and sponsors in bringing this fabulous flock to the city's streets for so many thousands of people to enjoy."
